I don't want to come in here with any nazi-police type of attitude because I truly think "to each his/her own" but I would hold off on carrying passengers until you have had more seat time. Just my 2 cents... Not meant to ruffle any feathers, but I would not want you having to live through knowing that someone you cared for died or was seriously injured perhaps due to your own inexperience.

Tached is dead on. Become confident and solid in basic riding skills and reactions before risking someone else's life (IMO). Personally, I dont ever carry 2 up, I dont care if I take myself out, but I wont be responsible for someone else.
To answer your wrist question, whenever you find yourself putting pressure on your wrists, consciously tighen your abs and use your back muscles to take all pressure off your wrists. Your hands should lightly rest on the grips. Its all a matter of practice. The more you remind yourself to take the weight off the wrists, the faster you'll be doing it without even thinking about it. |
