Re: riding with a passenger

I can't stand riding in heels, or driving in them, for that matter. When you put me in heels, I'm 6' tall! I will be honest, I just ride in plain old jeans from the shop.

how do think i feel? i'm 6'8 with heels!!!

i agree with plain old jeans but they do tend to wear on the thighs quicker.

Re: riding with a passenger

hahahahahahhhahah.. he's got a point...

200 bucks on a pair of jeans that you can wear out, or get on your bike and feel safe.. is that really too much for style and peace of mind?

Re: riding with a passenger

hehe well if the target adds are anything to go by, they should be quite strong i guess

well i guess that next time i want some new pants ill just get redmax or draggin jeans cause they look like normal pants anyway.

lol what about trench coats? my mum has an nice leather one which would look tops on my lady.
cept if it gets caught in the wheel or the chain...doe!!!

i reckon you should concentrate on yourself first and get used to riding in traffic. riding two up is harder than you think if you want to stay upright.

later when you've got your gear, set her up with a 300 buck helmet and around 300 on a jacket and 75 on gloves. let her wear her own jeans and boots till she's comfy on the back. hell she might hate it!

Re: riding with a passenger

ridin on the backs fun...but sometimes it sucks just cause you aint got comtrol over the bike, like when your ex decides to go 130 with you on the back just to see if he can scare you(not fun)..

Re: riding with a passenger

I've ridden thousands of miles two up. Some passengers don't understand the law of physics. You have to make them understand that under no circumstances do they make any uneccessary moves. Tell them to stick to your backside like each of you are connected with velcro. Don't counteract your movements when in the twisties or you could wind up in the other lane of traffic.
