Default pillion can i borrow somone.

Ok then im hoping some of you orgers can help. The gf is getting a little jelous of the bike and after a year is definatly wanting to get on the back. However ive never been or taken anyone before soooooo.

Would anyone be willing to let me take them on a short ride (maybe from squires? or roun here) only 20 mins to see if i can actually do it?

allow me to traslate, never had a pillion before, will probably kill or seriously injure you, but at least I won't get ear ache from it............

Taking a pillion isn't all that difficult, you'll be a bit wobbly to begin with of course.
Have you been a pillion yourself? That might be an idea to try it from that perspective first to know how it feels and how the rider acts, then swap over and have a go yourself.

aye that sounds good as well.

basically i would like to take somone on the back before i take my lass who knows nothing about being a pillion (as do i) and then let her have a go on somone elses before i shell out 1000's on pink leathers that she will no doubt want
