My instructor (a motor cop friend) says we’re good to two up.
I ordered the equine anti slip stuff. That and her experience will fix the problem.
not at all interested in your physics jibber-jabber.
But .... please continue .... without me.
My club’s motto is “STFU and ride”.

Do you know what the word "expert" means? It doesn't mean that I invented the principles of motorcycling. It doesn't mean that I have authored a doctorate-level dissertation on the subject. And it doesn't mean that you need to get all butt hurt whenever you realize that I know something that you don't. The word "expert" just means that I know more than the average person, which means that I'm able to help the average person. So unless you have an extremely fragile ego, why would you NOT want an expert?
And assless chaps are not safety gear- they're a costume. Anyone on a road-going motorcycle should be covered from the neck down in dead cow.

With one minor variation to the position of her hands, my wife has been able to sleep on the back of our Sport-Touring motorcycle for hours at a time during 1,000 mile days, by placing her palms on the side of the rear portion of the gas tank, and I just squeeze them against the tank with my legs. I can't hang off in corners, but other than that, I can accelerate and turn as hard as I want, and I can corner up to the limits of the ground clearance of the motorcycle with her sleeping on the back.
