Helmet bumping with a BSR is very common among riders I know.....we just call it turtle sex..... :huepfenlol2:




OMG  :'(  :zthread:  I am so happy  :7: that I am not a BSR.  Especially after reading you guy's response.  I would need a "boob" job and having sex like a turtle  :zwtf: :znothingfunny: :lolk:

T-Hawk, regarding falling asleep. A while back I saw a device advertised on TV that fits around your ear. The premise behind it is that if you doze while driving and the angle of your head is not within a certain range of being upright it would make a loud noise and wake you up before you had an accident. Sorry I cannot remember the name of it, but I am sure someone on the site also has heard about it and you can possibly find it on the internet. My wife is too busy taking pictures to fall asleep. Good Luck CAHDBIKER

my wife falls asleep in the sidecar

when she gets sleepy the first thing she does is start changing the music, then she plays her gameboy, then she falls asleep.

Just put the passenger arm rests on. Friend of mine who rides a gold wing ( i try not to hold that against him ) has the arm rests & his wife sleeps all the time & he says she hardly ever moves & don't see any way she could fall off. If i think my wife is falling asleep i just tap the brakes & i know she is awake when she slaps me in the back of the head.

Have had BSRs do this forever.  It seems a pretty common thing.  BSR that was a regular 10 years or so ago was the worst though.  An hour in to any ride she'd conk out.  Trouble was she jabbered in her sleep.  Talk, sing, make stupid noises.  Thank god we didn't have helmet to helmet intercoms back then or she'd have driven me bug nuts.  Could still hear or sometimes though.

Only person I ever worried about sleeping on the back was my niece.  When she was much littler on a bike without a king tour pak backrest she passed out once and it scared the hell out of me.  She was strapped down with an elastic belt and we were on an open field where she could ride.  But she still just bobbed all over the place. 

Never took her on the street without the King pak and it's big arm rest. In fact not even the normal HD armrests but the Kind armrest pads from Corbin.  They wrap around quite a bit farther than the HD pad's arms do.  Rider may flop from side to side and front to back.  But with the Corbin pad on there really isn't anyplace for them to go.
