Default Pick your gals according to two-up potential?

I mean two-up on the motorcycle. haha. (Well, I guess I mean the other two-up too. haha.)

When I first started riding about 16 years ago, I had an 883 and I would not let any gals who didn't fit right ride on the back. They could squeeze the air outta me on a ride, but if they were past a buck and a half, no chance they were getting on.

With my Slim, I still prefer featherweights like my gal.

I just don't see the sense dating a gal who is gonna make me have to adjust the pre-load. Call it selfish. It just seems practical.

When I was in the club, we were at the lake drinking and I had more than my share. There was a girl who hung around us, who was BIG. Tall and "chunky". Well, she wanted to ride with me and in my state of mind, I said okay. When I pulled into the front yard, I forgot to put my feet down and fell off. If she had been a small girl, the bike would have fell too. But she was big enough to hold it up. I still prefer small women. My wife's 4'11".

I made up a nice big sticker with one of those label machines that said " D.O.T. has determined the passenger load limit not to exceed 130lbs " and had that on my battery box . Came outa the bar one Sunday and there's a 200 plus pounder on her knees scraping like crazy at it .

Depends on how much you like doing wheelies.

See, I prefer a woman with meat on her bones. I have a patch that says "No Skinny Chicks". Then again, my woman rides her own bike, so I'm good anyway.

Default Kind of a sad thread really

when I see other Harley riders. I'm pretty sure I'm on the small end of the average rider at 220 lbs. 5'9"

Don't see too many skinny guys riding these things.
