Proper Harley Wave
Hey guys (and gals),
I have noticed people waving at me when I ride me Harley. I usually just raise my arm and waive, but people never do that back. Are you suppose to keep your hand low and do 2 fingers? Like peace? Or should I do open palm? Like an upside down 5. I would hate to offend a fellow Harley rider. I would also hate to look like a dork and don't know what I am doing. I have all the Harley gear so people think I am pretty cool already.

Actually, seeking confirmation from a bunch of strangers on the internet and buying all the branded gear pretty much cements the fact that you're terminally un cool.
Don't wave at all if it's something that'll make you feel self-conscious. When you're ready to tell your fellow riders, "enjoy your ride," do it your way. If you have to deliberate over what that means, you're not ready yet.

Well it's a bit late for that.. LOL.. 
Use the ONLY WAVE BACK line of thinking.. If everyone did it we wouldnt need these threads..
And last I checked a wave is a wave... Those guys that look like theyre trying to touch the ground are Gods and that wave is reserved for them alone.. Dont try it.. Ya might hurt yourself..

The "Low Five" without bending over seems to be the way to go.
