I don't really have an opinion on the issue. The only person I've ridden on the back with is my brother. He's been riding for about 10 years and has a lot more experience than I do, so I'm not worried about crashing. I will say, however, that I think a female would have to be rather exceptional for me to get on the back with her holding the bars. I know that we have several femme riders amongst us, and I'm absolutely positive they would be great drivers.

 

There's a name for it. The president of the credit union I work for rode on the back of a harley with his suit and tie and ugly helmet and they took a picture of him smiling and waving and we put it up in the lobby for everyone to see. It's very funny.

PS There's a term for 2 dudes riding together and it's called brokeback cycle. He even makes fun of himself with that.

 

thats some funny ****.

i have given my brother a ride before when i was on my bike and he needed to go get his car from the shop. i dont think it ACTUALLY makes someone gay, but it still is gay in a matter of speaking. doesnt make me comfortable having someone nor having to put my legs around another dude. just wierd.

 

Put your legs around them? Holy crap man, no wonder you think two up is gay! Where'd you learn to ride like that? ::Laugh::

 

I think its only gay if your on a scooter !! Anything over 500cc gives you an honerary man-pass for riding two up in a pinch.

 

Honorary man pass....i like that ...good call

 

ok...not literally, but you know what i meant.

 

riding 2 up is never gay...

what is gay? someone who is a homosexual...that and only that defines gayness.

i can ride my guy friends on my bike, shirtless and go 150 mph so that he would have to hold on to me close, in the bloody socal heat...and it's not gay...why? because neither of us are homosexuals...

it's good to see how educated our society is...

 

What is gay !? Its a term used to describe everything from happy to pillow-biter ! Would seriously hope our society was educated enough to KNOW A JOKE WHEN THEY SEE IT, AND LIGHTEN UP !![sm=bangbang.gif]

 

i didnt mean a literal interpretation of gay. since it is more commonly used as a descriptive word instead of a defining one. ie...i could say that a mod that someone installed looks gay, doesnt mean that the mod is a homo, nor the owner. just a different way of expressing an opinion.

sorry i was indirect in my expression.
