Hi everyone,
It's been about 35 years since my last bike, a 650 Yamaha. I think I've fallen back in love again with my 2004 Vulcan 750. I'm really looking forward to learning what you guys here can teach me .
But, there is one thing I need to clear up. I've been riding again for about a week. The protocol for the fellow biker greeting seems to have changed somewhat.
We use to raise the left hand a little above the hand grip. Now everyone seems to drop the hand down low. I just want to greet other riders without insulting anybody. What is the proper procedure?
The thing that really bothers me is when I don't return a greeting because I don't see the guy on the other side of the highway until he is almost past me.
So, if you pass me and I don't acknowledge you properly or at all; please understand, I'm just an old fart having a lot of new fun and I don't mean to offend anyone.
