(Ducks, hides and gets ready to sit back, laugh and point at the holier than thou's )

NO , I'll just tell her to hold on really tight and reassure her that she would be safe with me looking after her.

I suppose the threat of gravel rash is nothing compared to the whip-lash from all the tassles...........

ha ha, that was the amusing thing. The lass wasn't exactly "slim" and her legs were kinda the size of my body, and the skirt was this really nasty green thing, halfway up her thigh.

I could have got a right good view but i really had to turn my head before I was sick...... I could just imagine the spiders legs dangling already

In all seriousness, I took a lass out the other week, she was wearing jeans and about 3 jumpers and I didn't really feel right like that. Hell I've only been out once non leathered up ( make of that comment what you will ) and that was only a 3 mile trip on normal city roads and I felt uncomfartable.....

Having said that I think that....


This.........

Has the right idea.

Infact I think I've formed a new view, I'd tell her that pillion passengers have been researched and it has been deemed MUCH safer for the pillion (don't forget we are talking about firm, sexy ladies here) to ride infront of the rider but facing backward with legs wrapped around the rider..

PROMOTING BETTER RIDER AWARENESS....

Ok, anyone wants to know what happens when the only protective gear you wear is a lid and you come off at 100mph can click the link.

Both forums indicate its not entirely work safe, but its a sobering warning and why I at least wear my gear.

PS the pics are taken after 2 1/2 months after the accidents, requiring her to have had 9 operations - all skin grafts from what I gather.

Link here

Oh and this is why I wont take pillions unless they have appropriate gear on.

Liz has got her own bike

I've taken a few pillions if they arent wearing the same level of kit as I am then they dont go on the bike simple as.

Imade my other half buy her gear. She wants to come on the back, suit yourself up.

She now has trousers, a good jacket with good padding, helmet, gloves and recently we got some new boots for her...

Although i think I did buy her jacket for her
