When Salman Khan hits the road on his bike, he prefers gorgeous women to ride pillion.

The superstar has a penchant for bikes and often goes for long rides either in the dead of night or in the wee hours of morning when there’s less traffic and not many people to recognize him.

It goes without saying that Katrina Kaif has sat pillion to her beau on many such rides.

But there are other gals besides Kat who are often spotted on the rear seat, enjoying the bike ride with Sallu.

Bruna Abdullah , the superhot veejay-cum-item girl who’s now making a foray into films, has been seen more than once sitting pillion on Salman’s mean machine.

And now the latest bombshell to be seen on Salman’s bike is the Sri Lankan beauty Jacqueline Fernandez , who, by a strange coincidence, happens to be a good friend of Vivek Oberoi and has even been romantically linked with him. In fact, it’s believed that Vivek has been instrumental in getting Jacqueline her first break in good friend Sujoy Ghosh’s film Aladdin .

Whatever the case, Jacqueline’s social circle seems to be of little concern to Salman. He loves his bike rides and when a gorgeous lady happens to sit pillion, it’s all the more better.

Reminds us of a Bon Jovi song that goes: “I’m a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride, and I’m wanted dead or alive”.

By the way, Salman is acting in a film titled Wanted Dead And Alive .
