I've had a few experiences with my wife when she was riding. Both our bikes idling and she was at the top of hill, I was at bottom of little hill. I was giving her some advice. And she screams "Stop yelling at me!"Marylander wrote: ↑Sat Apr 25, 2020 9:40 am My wife's one and only motorcycle was a KE100. I took her to the pits in Laurel, MD and was heading with her to one of the trails on the access rd (she had done the MSF course but no other riding). There was a teeny, weeny eroded section across the road and it freaked her out. She rode right over it without incident but still she wasn't happy about it. She'll still tell people the story of how I led her into the mouth of death 20 years later.
She stalled it later and couldn't get it started. She would kind of push the kickstarter, not actually kick it. I showed her that it's so easy I can start it with my hand. It started right up on my first try (after she'd been pushing at it for a few minutes). I really feel like I did it without sarcasm or anything like that, I was just demonstrating that it doesn't require much strength, just a bit of snap.I think that was the one and only time she went out with it.
Her brother abused it for awhile and eventually she gave the bike away. I think I still have the street title for it.
Oh, and we are still married...
I'm ofcourse talking pretty loud, between motors running, helmets, and distance. She wasn't happy.
