I once bought a 12 ga shotgun at a sale.   I was 60 miles from home and strapped it to the luggage rack.   I guess it looked kinda funny going down the road but nobody tried to run me off the road that day.

A few 6' bamboo poles across my lap and used my gut to hold them. 

26 yrs ago I picked up a really cute but really fat girl with monstrous boobs on my old Superglide.

1981, was in the marine corps, moved off base with a bud, his car wouldn't start at the grocery store, so we put him and 4 bags of groceries and a mop on my 550 kawasaki with me. Sure got some funny looks on the way home.

Nothing to big on the back of my bike but I just got back from a bike trip in Northern Vietnam and was amazed by what they get on the back of  their scooters. Pigs (3or4) at once, dozens of cages with chickens, furniture, etc etc.

5 Cases of beer on a Sporty (at one time).
Golf Clubs in bag, upright on a Sporty.
Guitar in hard case, upright on a Sporty.
12 bags of groceries, on a Sporty.
16 plastic bags of groceries, numerous times, on 2 different dressers (I'm hoping to beat that record this year).
Front and Rear wheel from a Dyna, on Nemo.

But the biggest thing I carried on my bike was this chick... Nah... better not tell that story.

Ride Safe,

I just did a search on "overloaded motorcycle" and this site had some pretty good examples of slightly exceeding the load capacity of a motorcycle.

If she was also the strangest thing, you have an obligation to tell that story.   

[J-Carr]

Sorry Iski, my friend.  She was not even close to the strangest.  Just a big girl who wanted a ride.  No ulterior motive on her part or mine.  Looked a little funny becuase I was a big guy (300+) at the time.  She was close to the same.  Sporty earned it's keep that day!

The strangest thing I ever carried, was a different chick... Not bad looking at all, but made Britney Spears look like the model of sanity.  Freaky chicks can be cool.  This one wasn't.  Sorry no pics... which is a shame because she was not at all shy.

Ride Safe,

Not the largest OR the strangest-just the MOST impossible.
2 round watermelons and all I had was a couple of bungee cords. They only made it 3 blocks. They were a little easier to strap down once they were no longer round!

[iski]

J-Carr - will buy ya a brew or 2 to hear those tales.  Have carried a few strange ones myself. 

Guess the biggest thing (other than wimmens) I ever carried on my bike was a big ice chest.  No pics - but it was a balancing act.

And the bags are full with the smaller boxes. Thought about starting a small delivery service, then thought better of using the bike.

[V24me]

new tire for the bike (wearing it around my waste)

set of golf clubs I found cheap (no bag, just laid across the seat and sat on them)

Our microwave died one day, so on the way home from work, I stopped at Wal-Mart and got some pretty funny looks packing it out of the store wearing my chaps. I strapped it on, and made it home!  I have packed 50 pound sacks of grain home for the horse too, and I strapped three 20 pound bags of Traeger pellets. The pellets were a bit more tricky, but we made it! Have bungies, will travel!

I'm like a few of the other guys. A big fat ass chick!  Twenty five years ago got talked into a blind date. When I seen her out in the yard, I would have just  zoomed on by. Unfortunately, she lived in the last house on a dead end street, so I had nowhere to run and hide!

I brought a baby high chair once home on the back of my Ultra for the new grandson. looked funny and when at a stop light the lady cager next to me asked where was the baby, as she was being funny - I replied as straight faced as always and I looked quite surprised by saying - "Oh crap where the hell did he fall off at" and I thought the lady was going to start crying - well I am glad the light changed colors as she didn't have time to get my plate number.

All of my wordly possessions in one trip back in 1985.

I got transferred from USCG TRACEN Petaluma  to USCG Group San Francisco. I had two sea bags (military duffle), two garbage bags full of clothes, two guitars, a boom box and various other boxes strapped all over an old, crusty 360 Honda. High winds on the Golden Gate bridge made it more interesting.

I actually miss those days...

The local Thursday morning Waitress. Nice girl and a great waitress, but she bottomed out my RK shocks.  Did ya ever want to kick your own a** for opening your mouth. Even if you were kidding.

[garlow3]

Wife & I were riding in the smokies a few years back. Stopped at a Yard Sell and came across a 4 ft tall Ragady Ann Doll. Wife just had to get it for Grand daughter. I will never forget the looks we got on the rest of the trip that day.

Wow!   The weight of that loaded Honda XR and that trailer might be more than that Electra Glide.
