Motorcycle Safety & Driveability: riding as passenger, sportbike, thighs


Question
Do you have any good tips for someone riding passenger on a sportbike?

Answer
Hello Nickie

I hope I can answer your question, using my knowledge.  There is an art to riding pillion I always tell my pillions to sit still and don't try and learn.  It is up to rider to do the learning.  Always try to be aware of what the rider is doing in terms of accelerating and braking.  There is nothing worse than having your pillion leaning on you under braking.  I don't know what bike you will be on, but try and use the grab handle to help, use the rider, grip with your thighs.  One last thing enjoy the experience....
