Those are clearly set up so that the passenger can steer.

Dude's just being a front-seat driver.

You've got to watch your back in the SSDB, this is where the clever guys get bored with bike talk and make poo jokes.
I like my women a little big. Natural. Now, they shave this and wax that. It's not right. I love natural women. Big women. This trend in women has to go. Bulomia, anorexia. That's just wrong. You know what will cure that? My special sticky buns. One lick of my sticky buns and your appetite will come right back. ~ RIP Mr. Borgnine  01/24/1917 - 07/08/2012  :'(

My first impression of the picture in Africa (assuming that's where it was taken) is that it was a Photoshop job - but if it is, it's a dang fine job of one.  I really and truly do no know how that person managed to ride that bike - or why someone would trust him enough to get on the back.

How does he work the throttle?   The clutch?
