Sweat wipes off, road rash doesn't
At least they attempted to wear some gear, but the girl in front, didn't they tell her to lean with the bike and rider? That's just asking for it, and that vest won't help much if they fall, the hoodie will tear to shreds along with her skin.Two of them now
I live in Southern California and I wear my gear. I have no choice, don't own a car. I just take a few half-frozen bottles of water in my back-pack. It sucks but I do it anyways. : )
Exactly. I live and ride in the valley, westside, mid-cities, downtown, SGV, IE, and OC.I live in Socal and rarely have any problem with mesh/armored pants and jacket, perforated gloves and perforated boots. I live close to the coast where it's cooler, but I often ride inland. It can get a bit warm putting the stuff on but once I'm moving it's OK. I don't wear full leathers, but for my style of riding, I'm truly more concerned about crash protection than slide protection. Reality for me and where/how I ride is that I'm going to hit something long before I can slide very far. This will vary depending on your particular circumstances.
Yes please wear your gear! Except her. She's all good
I'm also thankful she shaved her pits.Ape hangers have never looked sexier!

Either that, or his rider (don't want to presume it's a gal - I'm not judging) is checking his helmet direction and will whack him upside the head (or cut him off) if he wanders...literally.
now this is the problem I've had a few times, the chicks never can sit still....The male dilemma. Hot as hell with the thong hanging out. But that's so nerve wracking to see.

I've had that conversation with my wife. Luckily, we only had to go over it once. I had her out for a little ride and lunch and I noticed I was fighting the bike really hard and it was wanting to run wide. It didn't take me long to figure out that she was on the back leaning out whenever I tipped the bike over. I pulled over and told her that, if she found herself unable to resist that urge, she could quite literally kill both of us. I told her to keep her body exactly in line with my body at all times. Problem solved!now this is the problem I've had a few times, the chicks never can sit still....
The girl up front is trying to stay upright making the bike lean more. I had to pull over the other day have the little woman get off so I could tell her that she needs to stop wiggling around so much as I ride and quit leaning the opposite direction of the bike's lean angle. I've had this same conversation with her 3 times now. If it doesn't stick this time I din't know what the heck I'm going to do with her.... I'm probably just going to have to tell her she can't ride with me anymore until she learns not to try to stay as upright as possible.

Very similar to how i taught my wife. I just explained to her that she needs to look through the turn just like i do. Never had an issue. Shes a great passenger.I just tell my wife to put her head over my shoulder on the side we are turning. So if I am turning left, put your head over my left shoulder, and as such for the right. That seems to get them in a good decent position. Easy to remember as well.
yeah I've tried all these explanations and it has yet to seep into her tiny but thick skull.... at least I'm not actually dating her... lol.Very similar to how i taught my wife.

eh... my wife just... too ancy... wants nothing to do with the bike... passenger or riding... so, I don't try. she had so many car accidents in her younger years, she's just one of them nervous, ancy drivers... let alone on twosyeah I've tried all these explanations and it has yet to seep into her tiny but thick skull.... at least I'm not actually dating her... lol.
Well with that wide stance, at least we know things are, ummm.... well ventilated in there.I know as a general rule we said no cruisers... but wow!
