I really don't understand how anyone is saying that getting on the bike was the reason for the robbery. You really think if he doesn't get on the bike, they just leave him alone? They probably rob him either way.

While this wasn't the worst decision made, it was a poor one. Getting on the bike gives them full control of the situation and location. True, they may have robbed him anyways, we can't ever know, but there is a significantly non zero chance that it would have resulted in them reconsidering and moving on.
