Default Got a question for the guys.

When it comes to men sharing a motorcycle my rule and math works like this, 4 nuts do not belong on the same 2 wheels.

However, my question is this: Up to what age in your opinion can a father ride his son on his bike before the above rule applies?

Your son is probably going to refuse to ride on the back of your bike sooner than you would refuse him a ride.

Next question

not sure about that one, I'm at that point now and he still wants me to drop him off at school on the bike, he's in the 7th grade. I do think he will reach that point before highschool on his own.

I think physical size plays a part as well, my friend's son is in the 8th grade and is 6'5" tall for example, no way he'd ever be on the back of our bikes! My son is like 5' 3" right now.

It happens a lot at the gap, it's known as the ride of shame.

I can't say this was that though, I was taking the ride of shame for a rider that went to the hospital.

some people, such as myself really dont give a shit. its not like you're sleeping with whoever is on your bike(unless you're a girl, in which case thats fine)

now, is it ok for two WOMEN to ride on the same bike? asuming both are straight. its exactly the same as 2 males in my book, just with women. therefore, I dont give a shit.

I took the ride of shame. Once, on an FZR 600 for an hour and a half. That' why i rode myself after my big get off, broken collarbone and all. Oh the shame of it.
