When my father first took me for rides on his Electra Glide I couldn't reach the passenger pegs. I was only 4 so he put me on the gas tank. That was in San Diego back in the late '50s.

I too have never heard of a state with a minimum age law. When my son was 4 he used to ride in front of me on the tank. That way he was held in by my arms. Had to order a special helmet for him. Anyway we were at a parade on the bike and I asked one of the motorcycle cops if it was against the law for him to ride in front of me. He said no and thought it was a smart move. When he got 5 or 6 then I let him ride behind me. He is now 12 and takes road trips with me on our RGC.
