Default What is the FUNNIEST thing you've done on your bike?

I've seen/done a couple like "pedaling" with the legs while accelerating on the freeway like you're pedaling faster and faser. Or pretending you have a horsewhip.

But this one had us laughing out loud in our intercom system with each other.

First ride of the year and my fiance is a little nervous but really enjoying it. A few spots look potentially damp in the shadows but it is a great ride.

So I wave to fellow riders going by and she says, "Keep your hand on the handlebar!" This isn't normal, as I said she was a little nervous, we hadn't been on a good ride since September or October!

Anyway, after the next group of riders go by, I dip my head and shoulder down and to the left as a joke. She says, "Don't courtsey them!" And we just had a good laugh after that. Of course, I did it a couple other times (after the riders went by).

Maybe you had to be there, but we had some great laughs over that one.

Any funny stuff? If you're all business, no humor, please don't bother posting.

one day I was riding in about 35-40 degree weather and was all geared up and met my wife at a local resturant for lunch, long story short, i took her car across the street to fill up the tank for her. Its a little ford escape and when I climbed out with my gloves and helmet on everyone just stared.

One of the hubby's buddies will pull up alongside a car on the highway and act like he is paddling a canoe. Or, he'll pump his arms like he is running alongside. He always gets a laugh and a wave - so he's doing something right. Of course he only does this to cars with women in it . . .

many years ago, some buddies and I was riding, actually barhopping from topless joint to topless joint. We pulled into this local establishment, and we started backing in right up front asnd center... Well I forgot to put the kickstand down on my '81 FXRS and didn't realize it until the left fatbob was nearly on the pavement. By then it was too heavy for me to pick up straddled over it. After much excitement and a little help from my friends we got it back upright. I politely excused myself and told all I needed to head home....

I work at a casino and see people all the time decked out in full Harley gear leave and get in their cars. Haven't seen anyone wearing a helmet yet though!

Chased my new Honda 90 across an intersection after sitting on the back of the banana seat and popping the clutch. Couldn't let go, or I'd fall on my face. Couldn't slow down 'cause I was hanging off the handgrips. Bounded across the intersection and made a heroic leap back up onto the seat; then I could stop. Looked around to see if anybody saw that, THEN got scared.

I occasionally ride on the gas tank for shots and giggles.

I forgot the kickstand on my 1981 cx500. New to riding, first bike. 20 yrs and it hasn't happened since. Thought I was cool till the bike fell over.

On my Panhead, we were at the lake drinking and I was smashed. One of the hang around girls asked to ride with me, so I said okay. I need to mention here that at the time, she was bigger than me...probably 200lbs. When we got to where I lived, I fell off of it in the front yard and if it hadn't been for her holding the bike up, I would have fell on top of me.
