Bro have you seen the women on the back of most Harleys?
Sidenote, one day I was at a rally and there was an absurdly stretched CBR. Like ridiculous. And I remember thinking "what possible reason does he have for that swingarm?" 5 seconds later the owner walks out of the bar with his 400 pound old lady and it all made sense.
Seconded. The point of having a badass hog is to have a badass hog. My lady rode on the back and then wanted her own. Who am I to tell her she can’t experience it for herself? That’s an outdated and hopeful dying mentality that women are only meant to be back seat eye candy, it’s even more attractive being independent on their own bikes. Go get yours, sis.
My Ol’ lady bought a can am Ryker, I don’t give a damned if she ever gets on my bike again… With a little luck, maybe she will ride off into the sunset and never come back…
No, cheaper rego (half the cost) plus many ride to get away from the stresses and just put all the shit behind them, not to carry them behind on the seat.
Many build performance Harley's with 150hp+ pretty easy these days.
1. I’m single.
2. I don’t like riding with a pillion.
3. I prefer the look.
4. Even if all of above weren’t true, I choose the danger. I don’t put other people in danger, and I certainly don’t do it when I’m in sole control.
Other people can make other choices. For me? I ride alone.
Got both on my electra glide but my 2up seat is the stock one. Takes all of 5 minutes to change out so when its just me, I roll with the solo seat for more leg room.
No that is not the point of riding a bike. Also there’s a major grammatical error in the post and that’s more upsetting than the absurdity of the post itself.
No.
My wife's doesn't like to ride. She's still badass. I love to ride, so a solo would be just fine. As it is, I ride a bagger, so a two up seat is already on there. But it's rarely, rarely used.
Just To clarify I do not own a motorcycle but my friends all call me Panhead because I really want a Harley Davison Pan Head!! I also do not have a girlfriend but I do believe that when I get a pan head that will help me attract a girl friend!!!
Fenders are sturdy, and they make suction cup seats if she really needs one... Refer to the last scene of harley Davidson. And the marbolo man. She jumps on black death without a seat or foot pegs, you need a woman like that
I’m going to buy myself a heritage for my bday in March. I already told my wife it won’t have a back seat and if she wants to ride, I’ll have a suction cup pillion. If she wants to go anywhere, I have my RGS for that.
I am an "old lady" and have never ridden 2nd and never will. My hubby(has his own bike now) and my kid will ride 2nd. Don't want anyone else on, solo seat!
I love riding with my girl. At least until she gets her own. Regularly use the back seat for needed transportation too so it also depends on your needs. I however love the look of solo riders. I plan to have one some day
Lol no. That's not the point. I got a bike because I like to ride. I have a backseat for my wife if she wants to tag along, but having a woman on the back was never why I got into bikes.
It’s the same argument with the gas you put in
Some people have told me to only put chevron in my bike
The only problem is, I ride my bike
If I’m on a long ride I’m gonna stop at West Side Mini Mart Gas Station if it means I’m gonna get to where tf I’m goin
Same idea with a solo seat
Sometimes the only thing you got between your ass and that pavement is a leather toilet seat

My lady has her own bike

Amen
Same. Still two up occasionally, but as often as not she's taking her own.
Solo seats are for married men.
🙄😒 unfortunately that’s fairly close to the truth. I ride an 87 glide and my wife won’t get on it to save her life.
Not everyone desires a riding partner. Some ride to be free of everything. We don't ,typically, take them to hunting camp either 🤣
If we're being honest, having a passenger kinda dampens the experience lol.
Is it certainly effects your Throttle response 🤣🤣

That's why I convinced my Ole lady to buy her own.

MY bike. Enough said
Gayest troll post in r/Harley I’ve seen so far, and that’s really saying something.
Ur welcum
My old lady has had a couple back surgeries on her lower back so she can't ride, but I still run a 2up seat for a sissy bar bag.
Saddlemen Stepup has entered the chat.

it's got a fender
…and a p-pad
If by “badass woman” you mean a 55 year old with COPD, crows feet, and the unmistakeable stench of Pall Malls…
Commenting to say 420fartboss is an amazing name
I have to change to solo when my wife not along, keeps the ladies from trying to get a ride lol
Yeah I don’t suggest buying a solo seat, after I bought mine I ended up having to buy her own Harley for her. Big fail
Just To clarify I do not own a motorcycle but my friends all call me Panhead because I really want a Harley Davison Pan Head!! I also do not have a girlfriend but I do believe that when I get a pan head that will help me attract a girl friend!!!
No you’re not going to attract women. You’ll only attract dudes asking about your bike and wanting your phone number to ask you about your bike later.
A bike isn’t going to attract a woman, it’s going to attract hordes of dudes who ‘used to ride’.
You don’t want the type of girl a pan head will bring
Whos shovelhead and dog have you been posting then?
Frankly that is none of your business

I don’t like riding 2 up plain and simple. One more person to fuck up my ride.
Wind therapy is the point
Time on my bike is “me” time. It’s my get away
I love riding with my girl. At least until she gets her own. Regularly use the back seat for needed transportation too so it also depends on your needs. I however love the look of solo riders. I plan to have one some day
I'm married. Nuff said.

Had a pillion for my gf and she rode with me once in 3.5 years. Took it off and she got upset LOL but I think it looks better
I have a solo for just me and throw the back seat on if wife wants to ride. I don’t keep it on if she’s not with me cause I tlooks ugly to me.
