Only once with my best friend she wanted to ride on his stretched out Sportster.It felt funny riding beside them and the next stop she was behind back me.Other than sisters or mothers no other women.

Only issue I'd have with that would be the other guys riding habits & skill levels or lack of . As far as worrying about her or what might happen I don't nor ever have . Jealousy on top being a huge waste of time is for amateurs come on you have zero control over what someone else thinks or does so why waste the effort ? It's all trust & confidence gents , your doing your job at home she isn't gonna drift now is she ?

My only concern would be safety and expirence of the rider. I trust my wife. Perhaps I trust her more than she trusts me or even herself. If the sucess or failure of our marriage depends on whom rides on the back of whomever's bike it was never meant to be to begin with.
That being stated, I know my wife isn't nearly as secure as I am. Beyond realitives and such I doubt anyone else will be sitting on my back seat for a long time to come.

If he's sober and she wants to go for a ride with him, I wouldn't care. I couldn't envision a situation where that would happen, but I've given rides to several friend's OLs that don't ride at all. The girls wanted to go, so I took them. My wife was there and I didn't even consider asking if she would care. It's a motorcycle ride. They can't even get a good chicken head going from the back of the bike.
