Da 'Wave'

Lately I try to wave in the most obnoxious way possible. Tickling gesture with my left hand or pointing at riders with boot if clutch hand is busy. Will give Spyders the comme ci, comme ca motion. MP3s/Nikens get treated as motorcycles. The best is fervently waving at a 30 HD parade while they're all trying to ignore me

This is a "so-so" motion in English?

Sometimes I give the finger guns, or wave my hand like an insane person if I'm in a jubilant mood.
I'll pull out the finger gun for those kids in the back seat. They're usually game and shoot back. Sometimes it escalates and I have to pull out the air shotgun and pump a few rounds their way.

That said I sometimes draw my finger gun to pop a few rounds at low flying birds. I also blow the smoke from the barrel spin it a few times on my finger before it goes back in the holster just like and good cowboy would. Drivers behind me must wonder WTF is going on.

Also, kudos for including a pic of an Italian on an Italian bike...

The only bike even he could not go fast . Leg out so it didn’t tip over when it died .
