Girlfriend falls totally asleep on back of 996 during short trip out of town

I thought this was sort of funny, but I am sure it has happened to others here, just thought it was a little more unusual on the back of a all out sports bike (Ducati 996)then some cruiser.
Headed out of town for an hour ride into the mountains to go eat dinner, cruised up there at around 90 mph or so and I had a strange feeling not to be to erratic in my riding because I though maybe my passenger was asleep.
Sure enough I asked her when we arrived and she said that she slept back there for a while. Just thought that was sort of funny that she trusted my riding enough to crash back there behind me.

lucky there weren't too many corners.... I've seen a T-Shirt that says on the back of it "If you can read this, the bitch has fallen off". I didn't get it, cos my wife isn't a bitch, but thought it was funny anyway.

Did you leave the back window open? It may have been from the carbon monoxide.



My wife will fall asleep on the back of my bike....if I let her. My ex-step-daughter used to fall a sleep on the back of my Harley all the time.

Might have something to do with Jujitsu sleeping pressure points being integrated into the design of the SBK seat, to reduce the suffering of unwary passengers who were duped into riding pillion on a pure sports bike.

It's that damn Ducati fault again.
I'd sell the 996 and get a GSXR 600
