Since apparently we can't have our own section  , I'll just post here and introduce some of the members you know and love but that don't generally post a whole lot (at least not in any technical threads). We're the proud members of the BSR's Club (Back Seat Riders Club)! We're the ones that support the lifestyle that is worshiped here @ CVOHarley/Hoist?.com!! It's different than being a rider but has a perspective and culture that needs to be acknowledged and respected (DAMNIT!!) 

The better halves are as follows:
JesterDecor - Cheri (HogBreath's)
Binx - Barrie (Hoist's)
HarleyDiva - Suzanne (TCnBham's)
?? - Trish (deepsoutheagle's) (sign up girl!!)

I know there are others here and others that we are encouraging to sign up (I'm talking to you Susan/ghost rider, Pam/Mav7266!) I'm sure there's plenty of other BSR's that just need a little nudge to be a part of this great site and have their voice/opinion heard too!

Now, this thread is for the wives that are back seat riders ONLY!!  (It's okay if Barry posts too tho!  ) So, y'all guys just need to put any threads starting with BSR on your ALREADY READ list and stay out!! 

Everyone knows how much fun the CVO GTG's are and this is the place for the BSR's to get to know each other just like the guys have so we can all feel like part of the family too!! So, come on in so when we get to Hot Springs (the next one that HogBreath has told me about, which is a thread for another time!) it'll be one big happy CVO family reunion for EVERYONE!!

Just saw Dood had moved this thread.  Man Gary, you've got bigger ones than I do.  Messing with the women like that. 

I thought "off topic" was cat puke and other things unrelated to riding?  How can riding as a passenger be "off" rather than "other."

It's that damn domino effect leading to the slippery slope again.  Communist regimes in Asia falling to Central America leading to threads moved at cvoharley dot commmie.

I'm into pain! If that pain isn't bad good enough I'm gonna apply for the moderators job in the Thunder Mountain section of this site.


I'm thinking Nancy should conduct the CVO/riders a$$ class.
Then we would have a bunch of horsepower hungry women.

I thoroughly respect/admire the BSR's that are on this forum.  Binx is my hero.  Anyone who can ride behind her husband at 95-110 mph going down I-77 to Charlotte on the 9 day trip without beating him (Hoist) up when she got off the bike, isn't the normal female.

Our intercom system is not for back seat driving.  It's for whispering sweet nothings into Terry's ears.      Also for rocking and rolling to XM radio as we roll along.        Sigh ... being a BSR is the best.   

[harleydiva]

Since apparently we can't have our own section  , I'll just post here and introduce some of the members you know and love but that don't generally post a whole lot (at least not in any technical threads). We're the proud members of the BSR's Club (Back Seat Riders Club)! We're the ones that support the lifestyle that is worshiped here @ CVOHarley/Hoist?.com!! It's different than being a rider but has a perspective and culture that needs to be acknowledged and respected (DAMNIT!!) 

The better halves are as follows:
JesterDecor - Cheri (HogBreath's)
Binx - Barrie (Hoist's)
HarleyDiva - Suzanne (TCnBham's)
?? - Trish (deepsoutheagle's) (sign up girl!!)

I know there are others here and others that we are encouraging to sign up (I'm talking to you Susan/ghost rider, Pam/Mav7266!) I'm sure there's plenty of other BSR's that just need a little nudge to be a part of this great site and have their voice/opinion heard too!

Now, this thread is for the wives that are back seat riders ONLY!!  (It's okay if Barry posts too tho!  ) So, y'all guys just need to put any threads starting with BSR on your ALREADY READ list and stay out!! 

Everyone knows how much fun the CVO GTG's are and this is the place for the BSR's to get to know each other just like the guys have so we can all feel like part of the family too!! So, come on in so when we get to Hot Springs (the next one that HogBreath has told me about, which is a thread for another time!) it'll be one big happy CVO family reunion for EVERYONE!!

I haven't been on the site today as work ruled my day.      Terry mentioned at dinner that you had started this thread.  You rock!

You FD guys kill me. Neal, seeing that fairing on a SERk will not sway me one iota! All the crap about XM and Intercoms will not sway me. I still continue to maintain that You FD guys Kill me!!! I would never ride 120 MPH listening to XM and bopping my head to the beat. I ride my bike hard and love it that way. If I want XM, I'll take my truck or stay home! When I ride, I RIDE. And that's good enough for me. That's my passion!!! Still think you can persuade me? Hoist!

The BSR's are an important part of the ride experience (as important as fuel and beer IMHP) 

Let's get all the BSR's to jump in here and make our presence an important part of the site!

P.S. BINX?? I love the XM and CD player...and Ken plays "girl music" for me. Told him that should be an all the time thing till it's my favor to HIM to play guy music!

[Binx]

Girl music? What is that exactly? Ya mean like the Dixie Chicks? Or do ya mean like some sappy love songs 

Anyway, I don't have a chance in hell gettin a sterio on a bike....it ain't gonna happen. But, I'm ok with it...I just like checkin out all the nature around me 

[ccr]

OK, so I am not a BSR, so maybe should not be replying in this thread, but Binx, when you say there is no way to getting a radio, it reminded me that I, like you, used to think I would have no use for one. While my husband was riding the Road King, he would go through so many exotic attempts to create some way to get music to listen to.  The list is endless of what he tried, some cheap, some expensive, none met his expectations.  Then he got the SEEG and that was that.  I was just cheerfully going along listening to my engine and trying to perfect that shifting to what the engine sounded like and looking around at the sceneray and smelling the smells you get while cruising around our great country.  Three bikes later and my husband bought a SEEG for me for an anniversary present.  Well, it had bonuses that I had never even considered.  One of them was the radio.  He added XM to that and then, I became a fan on not only having tunes on the bike, but XM tunes.  Always great music, don't need to download anything, never know what the next great song will be, and you know, I can still hear my engine just fine.  I love it.  I'd just say that Never Say Never!

But it's ok...I'll live

I can definitely say/see she loves it. I've seen her whipping her bike in curves, head bopping and singing as she cruises on down the road.

I think at times the music ADDS to the riding experience...sometimes on the XM, the PERFECT song comes on for the setting you're in.  Makes a 100% great experience 110% 

[Twolanerider]

I think at times the music ADDS to the riding experience...sometimes on the XM, the PERFECT song comes on for the setting you're in.  Makes a 100% great experience 110% 

For me it's a mood thing.  There are times when I really like having the music in the background.  But it does need to be the right music.  As much as I like it, however, at least half the time I don't want it.  Just like the sound of the road better.  The more open is the space the less I want the music.

[ccr]

I think at times the music ADDS to the riding experience...sometimes on the XM, the PERFECT song comes on for the setting you're in.  Makes a 100% great experience 110% 

I know.  I never would have thought it. Before SEEG, I had no interest at all in having music on my bike.  I was given the bike and it just had stuff on it I did not even know about, let alone know that I would fall madly, obsessively in love with.  I am not sure how the producers of the XM stations can have that perfect song come on at the perfect moment, but they do.  A lot of times, Jamey and I listen to the same station, and a hand signal will come back to me to acknowledge that we are both listening to the same great song, together under that same great sky.  I'm not trying to necessarily promote XM, just trying to say that don't nix what you've never tried.  I didn't know I wanted it, but now, will never go to a bike, or a car for that matter, without it.  I just got a new car - XM went in.  

I do sometimes ride with just the sound of nature and my bike, but I seem to do this less and less over time.  Even if I just have the sound on low, I always have the music on, it seems.

Girl music? What is that exactly? Ya mean like the Dixie Chicks? Or do ya mean like some sappy love songs 

Anyway, I don't have a chance in hell gettin a sterio on a bike....it ain't gonna happen. But, I'm ok with it...I just like checkin out all the nature around me 

I LOVE the Dixie Chicks, oh and Sugarland!! Actually I love new country music which makes me happy dance in my BSR throne  HE on the other hand loves the blues (and although I am a big fan of Big Mike Griffin and "some" other stuff) it just all starts to sound the same (sorry HB!!)

We didn't have music on the first bike we had and I was bored on anything but short trips UNLESS (and here's the real reason I love riding) we had people to ride with and socialize with on the stops. I don't have the "need for speed", hell I don't even like to drive my cage!! The fun for me is the fresh air and the friendships! I still prefer to have music, I've always been a big music lover. Besides, if ya never had it ya don't know what yer missing??? 

MrsWe?? You are MORE than welcome to post with the BSR's!!

Agreed...since we wear the Nolan's 90% of the time on the Ultra, and the J&M headsets, I pipe the music into the helmets most of the time, then we each have our own volume control for the helmets, so we can pick according to the mood or environment.  When I'm dicing it up in traffic, I generally want no other distractions, while Diva can rock out to her heart's content.  On a nice twisty road, the right music can help get me into the rhythm of both the road and the bike.  Kind of all fits together sometimes...

I also keep an MP3 CD loaded all the time, so I can always pick the right song/band for the type of road I'm on if the XM isn't getting the job done.

Candy, what are your favorite stations?  I'm generally on 46...

Binx...if Howie won't get you a fairing with a stereo in it, get you and Ipod with a good set of ear plugs, and have an even bigger smile on your face!!

OK, so I am not a BSR, so maybe should not be replying in this thread, but Binx, when you say there is no way to getting a radio, it reminded me that I, like you, used to think I would have no use for one. While my husband was riding the Road King, he would go through so many exotic attempts to create some way to get music to listen to.  The list is endless of what he tried, some cheap, some expensive, none met his expectations.  Then he got the SEEG and that was that.  I was just cheerfully going along listening to my engine and trying to perfect that shifting to what the engine sounded like and looking around at the sceneray and smelling the smells you get while cruising around our great country.  Three bikes later and my husband bought a SEEG for me for an anniversary present.  Well, it had bonuses that I had never even considered.  One of them was the radio.  He added XM to that and then, I became a fan on not only having tunes on the bike, but XM tunes.  Always great music, don't need to download anything, never know what the next great song will be, and you know, I can still hear my engine just fine.  I love it.  I'd just say that Never Say Never!

Channel 46 almost exclusively, but if the roads are real good and I am riding them real good (not always the way it is) then I like to kick it up a bit to Channel 49.  If I am feeling a little blue or not really wanting to rock, I will choose the year channels and sometimes listen to 60s and 70s.  Lots of choices.  When we drove last year to Florida (in car) we listened to the comedy channel for hours.  I am going to try to remember that station for the Nelson trip, for sure.

Can't say I've ever been bored ... long or short trips.      If we didn't have the music, I'd be fine.  Sometimes I turn the music down or off and just meditate. 
when we ride the VRod in town on weekends, we don't have music and I don't miss it.  Two bikes, two totally different riding experiences.

So Binx, have you ever taken a snooze while riding, or is Hoist moving too fast to snooze.      Sometimes when I'm heavy into meditation, I take a little cat nap.     Terry can always tell when I'm napping because he can monitor my volume control.

I usually can tell that my BSR is napping when her head nods forward and I get the helmet to helmet contact on the back of my helmet.

HDiva!  Maybe it depends on how long ya been riding BSR and no friends along?? Sometimes we don't have the music on and I'm fine too. Watching the other bikes OR it's a new and different route!

That helmet to helmet action happens with us too....but it's usually when a SHORT trip turns into a long one?? 

I would SOOOO read that book Binx!! WRITE IT WRITE IT!!!

We've been riding for a year.  Wanda June (the Ultra), arrived at about this time last year.  Guess we'll have to celebrate our birthday this weekend.    

Our longest trip was from Birmingham to Tampa to see my daughter and then to West Palm.  We've been to the mountains several times.  Every weekend we ride, typically 50-100 miles.   

[harleydiva]

You could attach one of the cameras to either Hoist or your helmet.  Of course, guess all of the pix would all be a blur.

Isn't there a new movie coming out called "Bugs"?

Be four for us next week!! *L* Course, this is the fourth one we've had cuz we kept trading up. I get perplexed when he tells me this is the top of the line bike and he keeps spending mo money!!  Happy Bday to the bike!!!

I used to live in Boca! Ken road from Clinton to Boca, so I wasn't on the bike  Other than that I don't know the longest trip I've been on  Of course, hours and distance aren't necessarily correlated anyways with the "HogBreath shortcuts" 
We've gone to the Smokies a couple times on the bike.

NOW Ya need to hope on the bike and ride it to Clinton with Terry HDiva!!! Maybe we can talk Barry and Jessica to join us too!! 

[Midnight Rider]

I think Suzanne has a hidden tether in the back of her Nolan that she attaches to the luggage rack when I'm not looking so her head won't fall foward when she "meditates" back there....

I would have been with Terry last week had I not had an appointment.      We'll plan a trip to Clinton some time.

Jessica is a love.  She joined her dad on the trip to Maggie Valley last year.

I had J&M speakers and an Ipod added to my FLSTS.  Does anyone know whether XM is compatible in trhe UK amd Europe

[bisounours]

XM satellite radio is only in States and Canada.

The system uses two called geostationary satellites Rock and Roll located respectively at 115°O and 85°O.

In 2005, XM include/understand 150 chains (among which 68 musical chains, 30 chains of information, entertainment or sport and a score of local chains).

Covering all the North-American continent, they were built by Alcatel Space on a platform Hughes System 702.

The transmission is carried out in band S.

hi Jaques what's our equivalent?

[bisounours]

I know not all but I think that we have not the equivalent in Europe.

It's possible to have this system in States because it's the same country and the market is enough important for the investment in two specific satellites.

In Europe, it's one market for each country more we've not the same language.
