First time w/passenger tips

RE: First time w/passenger tips
I started riding two up after a few thousand of miles solo. The best thing from a drivers persepective is for her to just sit back and let you do all the work. No need to tense up in traffic or lean into turns. Just go with the bike. The best passenger is one that you don't notice is there. No sudden movements or shifting without notice. If she is relaxed and along for the ride, then the entire experience is awesome. One little add on here...if you have a tour pack...dont use the backrest arms as support to get on and off.
Also, a piece of advice i was given with a bagger, is to lean the bike slightly to the right and have her mount on the left. This will allow the bike to center up...when she steps on. Great advice and you don't have exert much energy fighting the bike as she gets on.

RE: First time w/passenger tips
I agree with the 2nd poster, have them lean with you while turning, and hold on so she doesnt fall off. Also, don't get off the bike until the driver says so. Last but not least, always tip the driver with at least a bj! Oh yeah, one more thing inform your passenger to relax as that will keep both of you at ease.
