Took her to the Lakes for 5 days, with son pillion.

Very capable bike, even fully loaded.

I'm happy.

Another happy customer

Glad you had a good time mate, how old is your boy? Mines 15 now 6'2'' with size 13 feet, can't fit him on the back any more, his feet are so big I can't change gear properly

My daughter still rides with me, but the wife chickened out, she's convinced I have a death-wish

Not quite as big, but he's 14, 5'10", size 10.5 feet. It was a bit of a squeeze

Gee you lads have Bigfoot for a relative ?
I've heard of moving the rider footpegs down, maybe moving the pillion pegs back ?
I guess it'd be possible......................

I would have the pillion ride with the ***** of feet on pegs. Its an option.

My son says, " Hey dad, why don't you grab one of your other bikes and I'll ride this one." as he points to the 1kF.
