I just saw a dog on the back of a motorcycle!
It had its own seat and was buckled in. No way would my dog do that!! No way!

8. I have a friend
riding buddy of mine, who has a Jack Russel Terrier that rides everywhere with him. He's got a Softail Custom with the big wide tank and that dog lays down on the tank right in front of him. If he tries to leave the house on that bike without Buster, that dog throws a fit. He will not be left behind when the bike starts up.

12. I don't know
he just does, seems to have incredible balance skills, I have never even seen him slip a little bit. He's laying on a wide leather strip that goes up the middle of the tank, and he's sitting right in front of the rider, so if he ever did start to fall off, he'd catch him before he ever had he chance.

He sure loves to ride though, he's been many miles down the road with us.

10. I can sort of imagine a dog liking that.
Not that it is necessarily safe, but can you imagine all the interesting smells! Lol..its the same reason that dogs like open windows in cars..its a smell amusement park.

13. Let's kick this back to the front page.
I think we need to hear more about motorcycle-riding dogs.

14. There is a parrot who rides around on the handlebars
of it's owner's motorcycle in Seattle. I imagine the wind rushing under it's clipped wings makes it feel like it is flying.
