I prefer to ride solo but if I take a lady out with me I give them a lesson on how to be a passenger on a bike. Like the other posters have said the rider should lean with the driver. If it is someone that I like I will not try to scare them if it isn't guess what.

I had a girl ask for a ride one time but she made me "promise" I'd go easy...LOL yeah right!!
half way down the first block from the house after hitting a power shift off first gear she started screaming and then said she was going to puke and to pull over... she jumped off and walked back to the house... she got in her car and never talked to me again... guess she didn't like going fast...

This weekend I took my girl out for a nice ride down PCH (Pacific Coast Highway). We had a great ride, lots to see, everything this time of year is green, soon it all turns brown for summer. Stopped for a quiet lunch at our little cafe we like and she really enjoyed herself. She loved the ride but I guess she forgot that it was her "turn" to clean the bike when we got home...LOL I'm still hearing it.. I guess I should have kept her company instead of going inside and grabbin' a beer and watching TV.

RK whats your secret to getting your woman to clean your bike, I can't even get my wife to clean her car

No secret, if she won't I tell her I'll find someone that will... that and she loves that back seat and will do what I need her to. Plus I *usually* treat her real good so when its her turn she is pretty good about it. We have an agreement about chores and such around the house. I don't ask her to help me mow the lawn and she won't ask me to help vacuum. Granted she doesn't take very good care of her car either, but its hers and I don't tell her how to take care of her stuff. I think she likes to go with me just to keep an eye on me... LOL
