Hey...my "Biker Taz" has ridden many, many miles with me on 3 different bikes! He's all decked out inabandana and a leather jacket. That also keeps anyone from getting the delusion that I'm going to take them for a ride. The seat is taken...
I've been thinkin of designing a Sportster tour luggage piece in the form of a full-size female mannequin...... Depending on her size, I think she'd carry everything I'd need to take along.... and then some!
Then again.... maybe a stuffed animal design might be better!

I never seen a stuffed animal on one, but I seen a Pug riding on the back of one last week. He had a crate strapped to the back seat. He is their mascot. His name is Buster.
Can somebody please tell me what the deal is with strapping stuffed animals to the back of motorcycles? And does anyone out there know how this obscure tradition began?
Some people like chrome and skull encrusted rides, some like the stuffed animals. Call it art, fun, or personal expression, it's the right of the bike owner to do it.
These posts are getting old, people. Deck out your bike as you like, ride it and love it, let others do as they like with theirs. I promise you it won't ruin your life.
I see this quite a bit, and not on just lady's bikes. And not on RUB's bike either. Dunno how it got started. I though it was kinda cute, but was too cheap to go buy a stuffed toy.I strapped one of the squirrels that my cats keep dragging into the garage to the Sporty.
Man, did that thing start to smell after about a week!!!! [sm=smiley7.gif]
I know a couple of 1%er's who havestuffed animals on their bikes so I don't think it has anything to do with being girlly. One of them says it's so he has company when his ol' lady is mad at him.
