The wrong way to impress a girl.

[Anonymous]

When I was a teenager I had a hot lilttle # in my car and decided to do some burn outs in the school parking lot. While doing some doughnuts my tires cought traction and smacked her head into the pasenger side window. She was ok and wasn't upset. A while later she asked if we could go for a ride on my bike. I took her for a nice relaxing ride in a park. We rode down into a riverside park to go for a walk. All went fine and we had a nice time together. We got on my bike to leave and my alter ego took over. The drive way leading down into the park was a nice paved step down that in my mind made a really cool ramp. I said lets jump it. She hardly had time to disagree and I was on the gas hard. We didn't have enough of a run way to get going too fast so we didn't really get air born for long. She however got more air than me or the bike. I remember seeing her head appear in front of me. Thank god she was able to hang on. She wound up back on the seat and we pulled over. I told her I was soory and wouldn't pull any more stupid stunts. I convinced her to let me take her home and that was the last time she went out with me. I don't think anyone would blame her. Chris

Wrong way to impress a girl

Hhhmmmm......Let's think about this.....Queenie, you wanna back me up?

If I happened to be the lucky girl, Once we stopped, I would have knocked you off the bike, taken it and spun a donut around your still buzzing head. It would have taken many hours on your knees begging my forgiveness before I would have even thought about giving your bike back to you.
You are a very lucky boy.

You see, many years ago, my Dad raced Ducati's.....He gave my mom a ride and decided it was a good idea to do a wheelie while she was on the back :roll: My Mother ended up on the pavment and hasn't been on a bike since.....That was nearly 40 years ago 8O My dad by the way, stopped racing bikes soon after.

Always be a gentleman. Always take care of the lady you are with. You never know what the future will bring.

Well said Atilla

If it had been me on the back of the bike I think I would have done quite an amount more than confiscate the bike, :x
Dink learned a long time ago that if he wanted me to be his pillion that he had to stick to the rules 8O
Men seem to want to show off and end up making a fool of themselves and wonder why "Ladies" won't ride pillion with them anymore.

It works this way Guys

IF WE DON'T FEEL SAFE DOING SOMETHING THEN WE DEFINITELY WON"T DO IT AGAIN
Glad to see you learned your lesson Chris

Hey, I think we all have had our "stoooooooooopid" teenager moments. I'm pretty lucky to still be around after all the dumb stunts I pulled during my teenage years.

She's ok for peetie sakes.

I dont know where she is now, but I think the real reason she didn,t go out with me any more is becouse she was too busy going out with bad boys. I had my moments of stupididy, but I wasn't out being a thug.

My wife won't ride with me. She just doesn't like to be on the back, and she doesn't know how to ride herself. She's never been on the back of my GS. She's riden on my GSX-R and didn't like it. I hope when I get my GS on the road She'll enjoy it more. And no I've never done anything dumb while she was on board.

Quite coincidentally, I just received the following from David Price via e-mail. David also suggested that I post it, figuring that I would get the blame/credit. This thread seems like a perfect place to follow David's suggestion, so here goes:
