As a General rule no, however there are a few who have that ability with me, My Best friend of 20+ years can ride my bikes anytime, also two or three other friends who are outstanding riders only have to ask.

Other then that absolutely not.

I don't make a habit of letting others ride my bike, but like someone else said it is just a bike it's not your OL. My brother and daughters husband both have bikes and I have let them both ride it.

There's three people on this whole planet that I would allow to ride my bike...everyone else is a target for my fist or my pistol since I would have to presume they're trying to steal it.

it's just a bike, if something happens it can be fixed or you get a new one....I don't understand why people are so uptight.

Pretty sure the peddle on the right would throw most off.
