if I see a kid oogling my bike and the folks are around, I'll ask the adult if it's ok to let them sit on the bike. Some are Ok with it, others give me a ... look. I just shrug and wave at the kid.
If an adult is looking at it, I'll answer questions or thank them for saying "Hey nice bike." One dude was pointing out the Ninjette to his girlfriend saying there was a bike she could ride. I came out of the store at that point and after talking to her (cause, really, if she wants to ride then talk to the rider directly) got a feel she was really interested but thought she was too short for most bikes. I offered to have her sit on mine and she got to see that she could fit on a sportbike.
Not yet seen/caught anyone mucking with my bike while I'm away from it. Maybe living in the boondocks has it's perks.
