I've never ridden with a passenger.

Ridden with a passenger a few times.

Closest was with a girl while I was buzzed with about a month of riding in. Dumb I know but I did it. Anyways, she just caught my buddy tagging another girl and came to me pissed off. She use ot have a BF who rode and rode on the back so she knew how to be a proper bitch. I ended up hauling some ass on the bike which was easy now to me but probably to my limit then. She has her own bike now. A street fighter at that. And neither of us have a death wish (Or as big of one) anymore.

I've ridden in a 350z to 160mph as a passenger.

One buddy of mine who was outright squid and crazier to hell (Infact here is a video of him)

I remember looking at his myspace page and seeing a girl write "It was fun riding the motorcycle. But next time we need to go faster". I saw him ride with a girl before (Infact the one I gave a ride to) and he rode like that with her on it (She was into stunting and stuff). So whoever that chick was had to be crazier than fuck.

About 110 or so...

Dnyce · 02-03-2009, 11:14 PM

i think the average pass. doesnt know the dif between 100 and 130+

one chick told me we had to go fast cuz she had been 180 in a honda...cvic-i was like did u even look at the fuckin speedo?
"no, he told me thats how fast we were going"

i just walked away lol

i recently hovered around 100-105 with a new chick to see the reaction-she thought we're doing like 150, she was almost sad when i told her the truth

speeding is just a weight disadvantage, but dipping in the corners hard just throws it all off with a unknowledgable passenger, makes it way unsafer like earlier mentioned. personally im usually just a cruiser with a passenger- stuff that doesnt excite a normal rider excites a new passenger plenty

I've never had a passenger but been one a lot. I've been in the 150's with Jeep in control. We can maintain a good steady pace through the twistys(don't really know mph). I would never attempt this with any other rider and we are always fully geared.

I've been about 120 or so as a passenger.

hrm my ex was probably the best pass ever, on the first md run (while keeping up with a pack of one up 600s) we ended up crossing a hill about a foot in the air, wheel powered up a few times as well and she never flinched. top speed though i think is about 120ish. and for cage ive done 160+ with a pass in the nsx

Ive been 160 (limiter) in a 03 KB'ed Cobra and that was surprisingly comfortable.

Bike was reading 142 so I assume it to be well below that but it did feel like I was about to be sucked right off the damn thing.

No passenger though, and I don't think I would ever go that fast with one on either.

I'm not really comfortable with passengers so I usually take it pretty easy.
