Default Chicks mounting

So when the wife is riding with me I had to teach her how to mount the monster properly. Step on the foot board, chest center of seat and flip that leg. So my question is, do you let your woman mount first and then you or after you.

After. I don't want to have to stand it up with an extra 120# on it.

I get on. Stand it up and then she'll mount. One hand on my shoulder and a foot on the floor board.

You should be sitting on bike, both feet planted on the ground and stabilizing it..also apply the front brake as to keep the bike from rolling.

Easier for her to get on and off with me holding up the bike.

I lost it after I thought "do I mount her or does she mount me?" Seems like either one is OK. Only thing, what does this have to do with motorcycles???

I'm the odd one. I trust my jiffy, and she gets on first then I get on. She's average weight and I have no issues whatsoever uprighting the bike.

I too have chosen to restrain on this thread. Way too much fun with word play.

Me on the bike, stand up, front brake applied, and bars turned around 30 degrees to the right. She gets on from the left side, left foot on the floorboard, left hand on my shoulder, and swings over.
