    What he said. Funny how people think they'll get the retail value of their bike as a trade. It just don't add up.

    Good idea though.

    I think all of you are missing the point here. Isn't the reason they don't have graprails so that the young lady is forced to hold on in a more intimate manner?
    Just a thought.

    Yeah, though ive only been on the back of one bike before (Worked harley, sheeit!) I think id feel quite uncomfortable with my hands behind me.
    I think id rather hold onto the person infront.

    Simple solution you can get here,called "Love Handles" basically it`s just a belt with a couple of handles on either side for your pillion to hold on to,cost you about $30.
    "Trading Down" through a dealer is a great way to chuck away a load of money,you`d get rock bottom for your bike and they`d value theirs top whack.Dont forget they`re in it to make money not give it away and you`d probably get offered a really shit "take it or leave it" deal.O.K. if you`re desparate I suppose but a bloody expensive way of geting a grab-rail.

    I've been working on my love handles for years... and so far they've cost me more than 30 bucks!!!
