Not normally.
I waved at one recently without realizing he was a cop.
He waved back, and then as he got closer I realized he was a copper.

Yes...why not? More of them wave back than the local Harley crowd.

If a man is putting his a$$ on the line for me and mine everyday I'll wave at him, shake his hand, and buy him a drink!

I'm with Dj, give all LEO a wave. Always have and most likely always will.

Around me, the moto-cops usually wave first and I wave back.

They are rare around here, but I wave at anything on two, or three, wheels, even mopeds.
Speaking of the police, I was pulled over for not having a current sticker on my license. (getting old - I forgot). My muffler is louder than legal and my helmet is not DOT approved (but it is ECC2205) and I thought I was going to get a couple of tickets. He wrote me a citation for $110, for the sticker, and said "This looks like a ticket and smells like a ticket, but if you get your sticker and show it on the bike at the reporting station within 48 hrs, it won't be a ticket any longer." I was on a busy road during rush hour, and he stopped traffic so I could get back on the road without getting creamed by oncoming traffic.
Nice guy.

Just in-case anyone's wondering this wasn't a hate cops thread, I wish I could have made a poll... it's kinda a long the lines of "do you wave to harley dudes"....

I wave to them. If their eyes are on my hand they can't see my expired inspection sticker ;D

Two cops (not on bikes) were outside a Subway shop when I was getting lunch. Bought them both a coupon card for two lunches and thanked them for their good work. I don't know what they get paid, but it can't be enough. And the cops around here have all waved back too. 8-)
