It is understandable to be nervous. One thing to remember is that she will be just as nervous. Make her ride as comfortable as it can be. Take into consideration the seat she is ridin on and most importantly is the type of sissy bar she has to hold her in the saddle. If she is comfortable, it will help you to relax. Good luck and remember she suggested the gettin the bike, you may have a monster on your hands. You may not be ridin two up for long!!!!! Happy trails...

Also be careful when she is mounting / dismounting the bike. Tell her to let you know her intentions. It can throw you balance off. Also, yust have her sit upright through turns if she isn't comfortable with the leaning. As long as she is consistent you will be alright. It those sudden unexpected moves she makes that will freak you out.

I agree on the two up ERC.

Boone it looked like a pretty day to take your H~D for a ride, it looks comfortable all tied down.
