Default RE: Chick not Happy

Not everyone wants a ton of bike. my wife has a lincoln cartier and I a pickuptruck, we can ride in style and haul garbage already.
I wouldnt let my wife dictate my ride.

Dale alsomentioned he didnt want no barge.

Don't talk yourself out of a Harley touring bike till you try one...............If so, take babe along and sit her on all of them.

Padding dont make it better, you need firmness in a seat, thats why the mustang outperforms a HD Pillow seat so well...

now that I think about it my wife complained about her legs going numb and we figured out it was her legs resting on the saddle bags causing it . I removed them and she hasnt complained since. I have a sun downer by the way.

Bag up/soup a Dyna and have the best of both worlds. I have the passenger pillion, but it's in the garage somewhere. Wife won't ride. Bare bones to bagger in about 5 minutes.

I'm just cutting up gents.........I respect you guys who tote your gals along and I also respect those of you who are considerate toward them.....I'm sure many male riders wouldn't enjoy riding without their mates.....I fully understand those pairs who found biking to be something they finally could enjoy together and I cheer for you.

I've got solo friends both male and female and paired friends(but none same-sex paired)....what we all have in common is we like to ride......And that's cool.
Wow! That pill YoDaddyKeith took worked REALLY GOOD!!!
