never pressured her, just keeping it bottled inside and hoping one day she'll be ok with getting on the back for a quick spin

it's not a huge conflict point between us, just something that bothers me a bit right now. i'm posting it here because there are other people here who ride who also have SO's who can maybe offer some insight.....

i have reliable access to a car I just hate driving it in the summer. You make a good point though, she isn't obligated to want to get on the bike.

Hey man, so I'm in a similar situation. My gf thinks motorcycles are cool and stuff but she is very scared of them and her parents would kill me if I make her ride with me. They think anyone who rides motorcycles is gonna kill himself/herself. I do wish she would ride with me since I also want to do small trips downtown, or same as you, it would simplify things a lot more when we go out... but I can't do anything but to respect her decision. I've been dating this girl for over 3 years now and I love her... so it's really up to you. I'm still gonna try to get her to ride with me with baby steps (she said she'd be ok with riding a scooter but not a supersport). In regards to the budget it's just whatever man, girls will always complain about **** like that because then you don't have money to do stuff with them... but that's just how it is, do what you have to do! If you have any more questions about my situation and how I handle it you can pm me.

She's suggested the Ural already, could be a decent compromise down the ride if we ever get serious enough lol

My friends always warn me that the girl you meet is a completely different animal from the girl you know after 1 year, 3 years, etc. I really wish I had all the time in the world....Maybe we should start motorcycle personals on GTAM

From a female perspective - I think it's ok that you don't share the same hobby. It's good to have some "you" time as it keeps the relationship healthy. From what I'm reading it doesn't sound like she's against you riding a bike. She just doesn't want to go get on it with you. You need to respect that. But if she's totally against it.... well that's a different story.

Seems like you are really into riding...overall outdoor having fun kinda guy. I swear to you im not lying to you when i say DITCH HER NOW! i ride with friends from all different back grounds, and we all love riding, they all have girls who are into riding, going to the beach, the gym, traveling....having fun basically, one of them is stuck with a girl like yours, and he is always ****** and trying his best to make his girl have a good time, but she is always anti social, and even when she does come riding with him, he is never happy because she is being hard to please.
Im younger then them, i promised myself long time ago i would not date any chick that was not into cars or bikes, i just dont date girls outside this lifestyle, i dont care how hot or cute the girl is.
I'll tell you why, when i was in uni, i noticed two kinds of chicks, they both could be hot and cute as hell, but one was outgoing, fun, social, down to go for a drink, a bike ride, anything i wanted to do, while, another girl who was impossible to impress or ask to do anything. What you have, i call a souless girlfriend, its not them, they are just the opposite of us, they like staying home all day doing nothing, are scared shiitless of flies, bugs, even a bird taking a shiit infront of them. I bet your girl is also afraid of everything. This is nothing new, these kinds of girls end up with guys who are like them, shy, low key, anti social, afraid, stick to sissy Shitt. no offense to your girl. but i've had my own share of these kinds of aweful women.lol
If you talk to a girl you like, always ask her first before asking her out, so what do you do for fun? then ask her what did she do last weekend? then ask her if she likes bikes and cars? if her answers are ...not much....nothing exciting.....no. ....RUN AWAY! as fast as you can, these kinds of women for guys like us are a huge turn off and one of the worst types of relationaships.
If you want girls who are open and fun, you gotta find out if their into what you are first.
long story short, you know the saying, dont try to fix something that aint broken..... well Fuccck that....don't even try to fix something thats Already broken...get a new biiitch.lol

^^^ Silence beat me to it!
Is she worth giving up riding completely for, because that's where this is most likely headed?
I respect your guys opinion, but just saying there is nothing inlife one should give up for, specially if the other person is not willing to let you be happy with what you want, compromise is okay when you need to adapt to life, not when you need to give up what makes you happy or what you love. instead find someon who loves that same shiit as you, so instead of giving up who you are, you share the joy of what you love with someone who loves you for you and what you love, and they love the same shiit as you to, ****k everyones happy that way.lol
Ok, Suzuki Burgman 650 is a scooter. Make it so.
That's suspicious to me that she even knows about the Ural.

The back problems are an excuse for her to stop you riding. Believe me. I have three herniated discs in my lower back, had surgery on one of them, and I still ride.
My gf/common law also has a bad disc. It was her idea to get our license and I have never looked back. Best thing we ever did.
Now, she doesn't like to come on back with me because shes not in control ie scared. But she is practicing in the parking lots on my 250.
Your gf doesn't share the same passion as you, which is absolutely fine, but she should respect and understand your passion.
Whenever I feel like riding I just go. No questions or answers from gf and that's the way it shoul be.
Considering its only been 3 months, have a sit down meeting with her. If there is any hostility, get up and ride like the wind. There are plenty other fish. Dont ruin your passion as you only get one life and its a short one.

Couple of things. One, why is it a majority of women are terrified of ss bikes? My ex got on mine once, we didn't pass 70km/h and she thought I was going to kill us both. She also said shed be ok with a cruiser (scooter in your case). I'll never understand that.
Two, relationships are great but you both still need your own time and hobbies. Just because she doesn't like yours doesn't mean you shouldn't do it. I'm sure she's into something you're not fond of and that's what makes people different. Nothing wrong with it at all.

That's girl speak for "SS are so sexy I'm afraid of you picking up chicks"
Some of them are insecure. I've dated one who thought going to meets were posing around smackin girls ' arse. Wishful thinking, its more of a sausagefest

Well said. If you love someone enough, you will find as much time to be with her, if you love your baby more than girlfriend, you sure will be stress 
Riding was more important to me than the last 3 girls, and the one I would give it up for wouldn't ever ask me to. If she's worth it you'll find a way to make time for both and if she's not you'll know because you'll be stressing about spending time with her and what she's gonna say while you're out doing what you wanna do (riding)
That said my gf also refuses to get on the bike with me
Don't compromise yourself to please someone else.
