Let a female friend get on mine once and so she swings her leg over the seat and rriiippp she had on some tall boots with buckles on them and it was a brand new seat that was special ordered. What's a girl to do..................................
Then another wrapped her legs around me going down the road and put 2 nice scratches on my tank with her shoe heels............she did the same thing

...ask and you can sit on it.. ride depends on individual...if my bud had never let me ride hisI probably would never had bought one... kids are a different story..if bikes cool, with supervision, sure. You really have to watch the kids though.A friend and Iwere at the dealer with our bikes, had just rolled up from about 30 mile run, parked and walked towards door when a 5 y/o and his dad stopped to admire bikes, the 5 y/o was standing between bikes and backed up to get a better look at bikeand ended up with both calfs against pipes..brutal experience..for everyone. I really watch them now, although I though I had always been pretty alert.

Most of my friends ride or did ride. They are my friends, they don't need to ask. We borrow and ride each others bikes. I don't mind at all. If I was to come out of a store and find some stranger sitting on my bike, that would be another story. Never happened that I have seen, but I always figured I follow them to their car and check it out, maybe open the door and check out the interior as they were getting in. LOL

I wouldlet anybody sit on my bike if they ask. I have several really experienced rider friends and if they would want to ride it, they are more than welcome to do so. I did let one of them take my bike out right after I bought it to see what he thought of it. He liked it and said it ran great and I got a good deal.

...Of course, someone there built a little mini-chopper and he saw it. He made sure he told me that I was going to buy him that one when he got bigger. LOL Scary thing is, he WON'T forget he told me that.

Ive let all my buddies ride my bike and they all love the power. I have no problem letting anyone sit on it or ride it as long as they are a bud. One time was at a buds house for a bbq and they wanted to send a pic of their daughter in Iraq with her family sitting on bikes. My buds wife sat on mine for the photo op and i dont know how she did it but as soon as she got off the bike went to the ground. Luckily it landed in the grass and didnt leave a mark.
