havent picked out my new bike yet,, 06 or 08. however wife is thinking that she will never be able to ride on the back, compared to my 929 there is not much of a seat. anyone out there ever haul chicks on the back?

 

my gf says she doesnt think my seat is uncomfortable -06 RR... i think its uncomfortable having her back therehurts my back and she squeezes w/ her knees which isnt fun either.

 

My wife use to ride with me all the time and never complained. Its an 05 1000RR. I think the seats on the 06-07 are actually a little more comfortable.. there is supposed to be added padding in them compared to the 04-05 models.

As long as your not going on long trips, she should be fine.

garyward...tell your gf to try this. My wife places her hands on the gas tank to support herself up and hugs me with her arms. It works out very nice as I'm not carrying her weight on me.

 

do yosef a favorand get da 08. seats are much more comfortable and the performance is a huge difference. i have both an 06 and 08.

 

my gf rides on my 08 1000RR and she likes it better then my F4i split seat.

 

I've got one better...have your girlfriend put one arm completely around your waist then put her other hand on the gas tank...it makes a WORLD of difference for both of you.

 

Don't forget to slightly lurch your head forward for the first few shifts as well lol.

 

get her her own bike. lol.
