Had a great ride today with my lovely wife on our RT Limited. Lots of two wheelers and even a Spyder F3 and a couple Rykers to wave at.
But this got me thinking...
In the US and Right side of the road driving countries - we wave/ inverted "V" with our left hands as this is the side passing closest to the oncoming rider.
But, in Left side driving countries - the RIGHT hand would be the closest to oncoming - how is it done?
Do you let go of the throttle to wave?
Forego waving?

Unimportant question in the midst of pandemics, inflation, wars, world hunger and Spyders arriving at dealers without all their parts - but inquiring minds want to know.:D

Raised left hand, normally in relaxed manner unless you know the other rider then its a bigger wave...or possibly just head lift if in a corner etc.

Yeah, a brief right hand wave if cruise is on, a brief left hand wave if cruise is off, a head nod if you’re cornering, and a “not right now” if you are hanging on to the bars for dear life, VegasDan. :thumbup:
