Nope there are two things I don't let friends ride or use my Gal or my Bike. Learned that expensive lesson a long time ago.

Only my boys and only under my supervision, I have 2 bikes so we ride together short trips when they visit to weekend or week long trips. Sometimes the old man will do almost anything to spend a little more time with his son....

Only those that I know who live by the code - You wreck it, you fix it. So far that's 3 people; my brother, a friend and a neighbor. And that was when I first got 'er. I think by now anybody who knows how I feel about my baby doesn't ask.

Of course. I have friends and relatives who I KNOW are aware of the real life reality of: "You break it, you fix it." AND they have the wherewithal and the experience to handle The Bitch. It'll buff out anyway.

Schmo's off the street, of course not.

I'd let my club brothers ride my bike, without question, and vice versa It just doesn't come up though.
