Motorcycling greetings
Gestures made between motorcyclists
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Motorcycling greetings can include several gestures made between motorcyclists on the road. Titles for this greeting include "Biker wave", "Motorcyclist wave", "Motorcycle wave" or just "The Wave."[1][2] The greeting made can include a number of gestures including a nod, a pointed finger, palm-out V sign,[3] palm-in fingers-down V sign,[4] or an actual raised-hand wave.[2][5]

Regional differences
The use of specific gestures may be culturally or regionally dependent. French riders will stick their foot out when overtaking another motorcycle, and while lane splitting when a car facilitates it.[10]
