First pillion
 
Took Mrs Guru :kiss: out yesterday morning.

Her first time on a bike and my first time taking a pillion.

After reading a few of the 'pillion' posts I told her what to do and what not to do.

Hooked up the Autocoms and off we went. Glad I had the Autocom.

Didnt go very far... and only covered 30miles in total. But I really enjoyed it and so did she. :D

Tried to get a bit of everything, 30's, 40's, roundabouts, dual carrigeways and NSL's.

So now we're going to try and get out for an hour or so on a Saturday or Sunday morning (weather permitting) to build up some confidence and experience.

Im glad she enjoyed it. :thumleft:

When I had the standard shock on the back of my bike I swear blind it handled better 2 up . I took a first timer out as well and my first pillion over any large distance . SV handled just fine with no "Moments" to speak of ....... just had to remember to ease off a bit earlier and make sure that back brake is fine after the winter and you`ll be cool .

If it comes to that we'll just need to get her through her test so she can get her own bike :riding:

good to hear your Mrs enjoyed being pillion. Taking it easy is a sensible thing to do, gives you both a chance to get used to being on the bike together :)
