The instructions are simple...
It's a myth that they stick to the seat better ...
Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

I can't find any skinny girls who have the balls to jump on the back of a bike with me. I'm not really sure that my bike has the torque to cope with the extra weight either. Any volunteers?

OK, so who's next?
Come to Taupo and try to keep up with Me and my mate......a good pillion is hardly noticeable. I actually found the extra weight settled the bike more on the road....

Read in a magazine about setting up with the rear brake first when taking a pillion, tried it on the way to Aucks the other weekend. It makes braking easier, a LOT less opportunity for banging helmets and a smoother ride all round.

Unfortunately the course I'm doing is a bit of a saussy fest (not many girlies studying computing). There are a couple of hotties though, and I'm sure that after they see my bike and I bust out the good old SMOKEU charm they'll be keen for a ride.

Have ridden pillion with a few riders and each had different ideas about what made for a good ride. Some are OK with hanging on around the waist, others don't like this, or using legs to hold steady, works for some riders annoys the crap out of others so be prepared to sort out between you what works.
The common rules seem to be the ones about cornering and not actively leaning or fighting it. The sack of spud concept works but not so saggy that helmets (or if short helmet to back) bang.

get to it, tell them to wear tight pants.. apparently the vibrations are good for them so they say.. literally, never tmi with some girls eh.

The old gixxer doesn't vibrate much, but I'm sure if I disconnect 1 or 2 of the spark plugs leads I can "fix" that "problem". I'm sure there was a thread somewhere on KB about the ladies enjoying the vibrations from twin cylinder bikes...

really.. bet it does.. the blades pretty smooth and its enough.. plan b tape a running vibrator or two on the underside of the pillion seat eh
Don't forget to bring a towel
I like the way you think...the old gixxer has a pretty damn big glovebox underneath where the passenger seat goes, so there's plenty of room for a vibrator...

Makes for interesting reading...
I find spelling out the intention is just as important as the mechanics of sitting on the back.
- The idea is to have fun and get someone interested, not scare the crap out of someone. This usually means going like a nana for the first while. Moderate acceleration on a bike is serious acceleration for someone used to (the majority of) cars.
- Helmets will clunk during first few gear changes - it's normal.
- Sit forwards and hold on to me, or sit back and hold onto grab rail. Use feet to help keep arse centred.
- If we stop at lights or intersection, don't worry about trying to put your feet down - I'll keep the bike upright (scared the crap out of me when one tried this).
- I like the idea of a simple communication system - 2 taps on your knee means pay attention (going to pass, hold on, something is up etc). 2 taps on my shoulder means pull over.
- I can't hear you unless we're stopped.
The things we take for granted have to be un-assumed and then spelled out for someone who has never been on a bike.
Having a simple and clear briefing puts a new pillion's mind at ease, and gives you a reasonable amount of confidence they won't do something that could scare you.
