And there is no movement of the passenger, except for their head. They can move their helmet around my helmet to see ahead to the inside of a curve. But they always lean exactly with me, not with the bike. If they leaned with the bike, you know they would do it wrong, and it could throw me off balance. And I always ride slower with a passenger because of the extra mass.
The ZX-11 was so comfortable I fell asleep one time on the back.
