Take your rear pre-load up a notch. It helps wonders.

Some folks advise a few extra psi in the rear tyre too. I don't bother with that though.

Also, allow yourself more time for everything, the bike will be sluggish carrying more weight.

EDIT: I'm around 11 stone, and have had no problems with my 15 stone mate on the back. I just accept the fact that the bike will pull differently.
