Theres only two guys I let ride mine, and there the guys I ride with and trust. Plus I've ridden their bikes, a 77' FXE and a 05' Street Glide. Anyone else, depends on who you are and how I know you.

I let my father ride my bike, he also lets me ride his. I have a few friends that I would trust to ride it.

Geez, it a F'n bike....

Sure, I'll let people ride it if they know how to ride. I'll let people sit on it, touch it, H#ll I'll let little kids swing on the monkey bars if it'll make 'em happy.

I have a sign hanging on the handlebar, when my bike is exposed on a Harley event:
"Touch this bike and it was the last thing you remember after arriving in hell" And I mean it!

Yes.....My wife (cause she lets me ride her & her bike)
any of our friends who also ride because they would also let me or my wife ride their bikes. We all know that if any thing happened whoever was at fault would make it right..up to and including replacing it!
