Why not let someone more experienced break the wife in - where's Funky?







Joking aside, there's a thought there, if you know someone who's used to taking passengers, let them take her for a spin and add some independent constructive critisism (but not Funky).

Who said the GS has a low centre of gravity? might be the case but would be a lot handier if your feet could touch the floor comfortably to start with when 2 up. R1200R would have been a far better choice.

Pop over here at the weekend and we can answer her/your concerns..Broadclyst just outside Exeter

The only thing I would add is that a topbox makes a good back rest and a tap on the shoulder and a nod before getting on and off the bike

If you're still having worries about it, drop me a line - a ride out to the Exeter area might be fun one sunny day

PS if you don't 'do' FB, don't worry, you don't have to create an account to view the page, just read it like any other website.
