Funny, but kinda obviously Photoshop'd

Poor guy.  How are they going to get that bike out of his butt?

I've seen that pic without the sparks several times.  Also, sparks are spewing the wrong way to be coming from the rear wheel.  Then again, rubber shouldn't really spark, ya think??

My guess would be Photoshop. There is no other way.

I agree with the spark direction, butt, ....but, if this guy regularly rides with her on the back, he may have installed a studded rear tire for added traction, which, in this case, will spark. She seems like a nice girl, give her credit for getting out and riding.

Yep, stuffed animals bungeed to a motorcycle.   Hey, it's better than a guardian bell.   ;D

My mascot... this is 2nd generation, anyway.  The 1st gen had ~21k miles on the back of my ST1300 and Wing... then sadly had a flying dismount on I-25... I kept having nightmares of him landing face first on some old ladies windshield, causing her to have a heart attack. :o

Much better than Gremlin Bells... he likes to drink Mello Yello, and rides to Moonshine.

Not at all... with all that weight in the back, the bike is rolling down hill backwards, and the tires are worn to the steel cords.

This is a big FL flower called "Birds in Paradise". I had a polarizer on my lens for color and had to take a pic as i walked by.

I don't want to see this flower on a sport tourer

I see you're drinking 1%. Is that 'cause you think you're fat? 'Cause you're not. You could be drinking whole if you wanted to.
