I'm putting the finishing touches on a chopper I built and I just thought of something. Has any of you ever ridden a girl on the back of a softail with a swingarm mounted fender. I've ridden girls on rigids but my new settup seems that it might be worse since she will be bouncing up and down with the wheel on the smooth streets of NYC. Maybe she'll like it. If not, it looks like I'm in trouble.

LOL, yer in trouble! Built a couple that way, and no one liked to ride back there. Buddy and I did his 76 XLH with FL shocks, mounted fender to swingarm. When he rode it on a genuine cobblestone street, it liked to have thrown his girl off! We got rid of the shocks and strutted it eventually. It rode better for the passenger rigid than it did with the shocks.

 

Those bikes weren't ment to have passengers.
