About big girls...one of our pilots here at work likes big butts and can always be found stating, "Ya need enough *** to keep your ***** from dragging on the sheet!"
ORIGINAL: wbogley
My buddy always says that big girls will kill your back tire....like 3,000 miles and your back tire is down to the cords. This could get expensive!!
That does't even sound close to being true. Butof course, I guessit would depend on how big the girls were. My wife and I aren't exactly small and I've got 8k miles on my RKC's original rear tire and it's not even close to being worn out.
Disclaimer....if your post was a joke, I apologize.... geez, I'm glad it's Friday.
Yeah, well it may be a good trade off. LOL She's good to me....She's the one that bought me the bike....
At first, she wouldn't ride the shovel, got oil all over the rear of her left leg....besides being left stranded when she rode with me, or having to come pick me up (never left the house without the trailer hooked up to the truck) I came home and had an 07 Fatboy sitting on the back patio.
You could be right though,just trying to get out of the house..If this is the price I pay for having to do what I love, SO BE IT!
Well, my wife's on one of her weight gain trends, currently size 14.Anyway, we ride two on the Glide just fine, other than the weight factor is nerve racking when coming to stops.
glad to hear you say that. Coming to stops is the worse part, especially if my wife has her big a$$ hoofers kicked forward on the footboards. Almost went down a few times before I broke her of the habit.
My wife while not jumbo is still hefty at times, currently carrying around 170 on her 5-8 frame. I can tell the difference when I think back at her 140 days. At the lighter weight, coming to a stop was much easier to dealk with, when rolling I couldn't care less if she was 200.

I noticed if you DON'T pull in the clutch, grab a bunch of front brake and put your legs down its much more stable stopping. Instead I started, applying back brake, once we slowed to under 20mph, then clutch as necessary, keeping feet up until the last possible second trying to come down on the left side with my foot. This worked much better.
