So does she still ride pillion? In her pink leathers? And when you say pink leathers, do you actually mean from neck to ankle? :o

I never said pink leathers - you did! And hell no it's not head to toe. Just a pink textile jacket and lid - as subtle as you can be with pink! It ain't that bad really.

Don't get this wrong, but since you said yourself that you are a new rider I'd concentrate on getting on with the bike before you think about taking someone pillion. Once you a happy on how everything handles then someone may be lucky enough to get a pillion ride with you.



Eh!? Not what I found. Where in the world do you live where the girls are simpler? :D



What's your bike? On any SV650 from K2 onwards you can adjust the preload front and back. However you can't adjust anything else.

If I wasn't tight I'd spend £30 on the k2+ caps but as I am and I'm actually 1/2 moron I've decided to shim them up .

You can however adjust the preload of your rear shock for two up riding. It will do wonders to the handling.

Ah ok, for some reason I assumed by pink bike gear you meant leathers, not sure why though! No that's not too bad I guess, if you like pink :-P

So has your missus got the bug now then?
