I just got my Ultra Classic this weekend. You can see the softail thread I started a couple of weeks ago for the story. I will admit I am a little intimidated by the big bike right now. It will be delivered on Tuesday. I want to be a very good driver of the bike since my wife will be riding with me. That is why we got it. So for those of you who take a passenger frequently, what are some of the pointers you have for me to make it an enjoyable ride for the passenger. I am a very defensive driver and know the importance of being alert to all the surroundings and others on the road but I know there must be a multitude of other suggestions that all of you experienced riders can provide me. I can tell you I will take all of this very slow and make sure my confidence level is where it should be before I take my wife on it. I know the safety apparel is an absolute and will make sure we are dressed correctly. Thanks in advance for all your insightful information.
