Default Unwritten rules for harley riders
My wife just got a iron 883. She keeps asking me about the unwritten rules for harley. I just tell her don't act like a *** and never ever wave to people on scooters. Does anyone else have any?

Ride your own ride. Wave to whoever you want. Don’t dis anybody else’s ride. Including metrics. These aren’t Harley rules. They’re common sense.

If you start dissing other people’s rides be prepared to take a lot of abuse. The 883 is at the bottom of the Harley snob pecking order.

Don't worry so much about stupid, phony "lifestyle" crap that you crash your Iron 883.

Wave at everyone. One day when you're on the side of the road needing help & nobody stops you'll understand why

Read, and understand the Owners Manual from cover to cover.

Wait....that's written in the OM. Never mind.
