Yeah it is good with girls on the back. Just no suicide, wheelies or endos or you get a smack.

I don't. And tbh I'm not gonna ride anyfaster than I want to just to please someone else. No chance I'm risking someone else's life just for a laugh.

Nothing like having your leather clad ladies thighs clamped around you.

I'm not a huge fan of anything suicidal though let alone taking someone else along for the ride.

In more ways than one. Bikes are an awesome pulling tool

I once gave a ride to a 16st security guard at one of my old jobs. Bike was trying to wheelie just accelerating normally. Serves me right for only being 10st at the time

I gave my first pillion ride on saturday (and again on sunday), was great fun, only problem was its not very easy to comunicate at speeds above 30mph (due to noise). I was quite surprised at how easy it was, I thought the bike would be much harder to handle.

For anyone wanting to give their first pillion ride then my small peace of advice is to do it whilst they have a fairly low tank to petrol, that way the step up in weight is not as large.

Huh? Being a totally suicidal f##knut is the best way of avoiding people asking you for a lift again
