Does your wife/girlfriend prefer to ride on back, ride their own, or not ride at all?

My wife loved her bikes she had in the past. We sold her last bike a year ago, so now she rides on the back once in awhile. She likes both, but says she misses her bike often. As soon as we get back on our feet finacially, Im sure she will be riding her own again.

Mine won't even get on the bike. She says she doesn't think riding with her knees up around her ears would be very comfortable. She wants me to get a Goldwing.

Mine will get on the back but shes not a fan of it. She tells me quite often how I need to sell it and I her that will never happen unless its for a new one

i feel the same way. She used to say I could never have one and now she says Its ok. But now she says she'll never ride on it, so i'm sure she'll bend on that too eventually. lol

My wife is 28 and she has been riding since I bought her first bike 4 years ago. The only thing that has stopped her is being pregnaut and even then she loves to ride. I think since she is only 5ft2in she just always wants to prove her self willing. Johnnyh

Mine hasn't ever ridden on one in any fashion. I think there's a curiosity there, so maybe down the line.

There is a reason I bought a 600 - when I upgrade to a literbike in a year or so, she can get the hand-me-down....or it becomes a track-bike if she won't ride it.

my ex rode pillion, but i can't imagine her ever riding one solo. every other female in my life gives me crap about even owning one; at this point it's hard for me to imagine a chick who is interested/supportive of the idea, let alone into it. it's just me and my bike, and i'm perfectly good with that.
