I've got to say the thing with having the horizon halfway up the mirror is a little OCD for me.

yeah I know haha.....straight roads and nothing else to do but glance around.....I get so bored and end up adjusting my mirrors to be just perfect. :\
 
When other riders don't wave back..... I mean the ones that look at you and you wave and they just look.... Makes me feel like I'm flailing my hand out in the wind.

I have to admit, sometimes I do not wave back. Safety being the main priority it's just not always safe to wave, but I'll atleast nod my head to them but I can't say that others will always see such a small gesture. When I ride the Harley I wave at everyone except other Harley riders, my way of payback because it's always the Harley riders who turn their nose up at me when Im riding around on the Triumph.
 
People who take up half of your lane when their supposed to be on another lane when taking a roundabout
Tailgaters
People who use indicators wrong
People who don't use Indicators
People shouting do a wheelie
Not being able to (Legally) have a tinted visor and having sensitive eyes
 
When my ears fold in when removing my helmet causing a lot if pain (especially when I have the scala earpieces fitted)

Has to be when I'm out riding with my mom in front of me, as she isn't a very spirited rider, we're going a bit slow, even for pickups. this fact doesn't annoy me. I'm glad she's having a good time. it's when bubba is out in his pickup tailing me so close I could reach back and pull the badge off the front of his truck. then when we slow off and pull over the solid white to let him by, he won't go around us. already had 3 of these encounters, and I've only had my license a couple months.
 
bugs the size of small people, trucks kicking up rocks (i have no fairings on it), and people that decide to back up into the street because they can't hear this loud bike.

Well Yeah of course safety. I dont wave back sometimes because of it, but I do nod my head or that gesture thats like "WHATS UP!"
 
people not using indicators - like c'mon you move your finger one inch to use it.
people who go under the speed limit.
people who don't do shoulder checks
people who don't use a slip lane properly
people who don't merge with oncoming traffic at speed
 
Getting side swiped? yeah, that's my new #1 most hated. I was riding with my dad, and he had the GPS, and we're on our way to meet people. so I'm following him on 270, (big interstate) and this guy in some little sporty car whips over into my lane, directly beside me. I swerved and slowed pretty quick, but my leg contacted the side of his car. and man do I hope my foot peg dented and scratched his car, cause damn. I'm glad I stayed upright.
 
1. People who drive the same speed as people next to them, but feel as if they need their own lane. Idiots. Thankfully, I can split between them.

2. People on single-lane twisties who are SLOW but don't yield to faster traffic and don't use turnouts.

3. People who don't use deceleration lanes (I find women do this more than men). ANNOYING.

4. People who text at red lights, and then make you wait because they're stupid and inattentive. This also causes some people to run red lights to make up for lost time.

5. People who DART from one lane to another, seemingly randomly...especially if I am lane-splitting and they dart in or out of the carpool lane over the double-yellow.
 
The cheap road resurfacing where they just cover it in tar then put a load of gravel chippings on top and let vehicles push it down. It's bloody dangerous.
Diesel spills
the telepathic indicators that taxi's and most BMW & Audi's are fitted with, I must be stupid,I can't pick up their telepathic signals of which way they are going to turn.
getting an itch on the top of my head
people that creep at a junction, you see the wheels start to move and don't know if they have seen you or not!
and finally, having to stop riding my bike because it's time to sleep!

and people who put HID bulbs into a standard halogen reflector light...like c'mon if you going to use HID's at least do it properly and not blind oncoming traffic and motorcyclist's.
just my 2c worth :D
 
That itch you get on your head under your helmet that you wanna scratch sooo badly but cant and riding in deep heavy fog that when its below 0 turns to ice (pics to come), or when its above 0 comes in wet through your vent an builds up as moisture on the inside of you visor!
