Tyres remain the same, just notch up the preload adjustment by a couple of clicks and see how it feels.

I ride with a pillion pretty often on the SV and just whack up the preload to full, and for some bizarre reason I actually prefer the feel of the bike a bit more with some more weight on the back.

Just watch out for impromptu wheelies!
