Intrducing your Pillion

[Ziderman]

Having been Divorced by my last Pillion & she was great on the back of the Bike. Finding new one has not been so easy. Last Girl friend just did'nt want to go on back at all.
Any how. I got one now , shes Aerodynamic , bit sleeker & younger. Not a bad deal really. Not sure about the finance options at moment & running costs......shes an experienced pillion to. So ideal.

[Boomer]

Well, here's my pillion of the last 8 years.
Has about 5,000 miles experience of sitting behind a Boomer.
Knows the hand/touch signals;
gentle rub = I'm Ok
pointing at a services sign = I need a piss/coffee/food/fag
slap on my thigh = behave yourself
smack on back of helmet = BAD BOY!  ;D

Prefers the GTR1000 as is more comfy but likes the excitement of the 1400.
Last rode pillion 3 weeks ago when we went to the MotoGP @ Silverstone.

[Rusty]

You two are both very lucky, as is anyone else who is going to add their babe to the forum ... Mrs Rusty just isn't into bikes at all, or those 4 wheeled things either .... just gets in it and off she goes .. could be a Fiesta ( we have ) or a Roller ( we don't have )  ;D it really wouldn't make any differnence what the colour was ! Pillion ? God No ! Some people say thats a good thing but I would like it to be the other way around .... to share trips and camping out etc would be great ... A lovely wife but no biker chic for me :(

[Lonewolf]

As above, Mrs Wolf will not entertain my requests for her to get on the back of the bike so I dont push it. It would be nice but then God forbid if she ever came to harm on the bike I would never be able to forgive myself.

Its my 'TOY' as she puts it so thats where I am, no pillions I'm afraid for me.  :'(

[Therenback]

don't worry LW, mrs s won't entertain navigator slot either as she prefers to  ride her own  ;D here she is before leaving to do RLBR1000 ride from squires in leeds for the poppy appeal. 1200 miles (in bad weather that weekend) on her old fav zzr250/ my old lady no token rider

My ex wife wasnt a keen pillion so im delighted that my new partner loves the GTR. She even spots overtaking opportunities as she enjoys the accleration as much as I do.

She also appreciates the large mirrors!

Result there then Mate...well done...!

Oi Bomer...you to tight to buy Intercom then...tell you used to live in Somerset.... ;D

[Boomer]

Nah, I hate the damned things. Had one many years ago and the damned pillion just would not SHUT UP!
On one particular ride I was tempted to see if I could get her to fall off the back. Then I remembered that I had a topbox.  >:(
I may have to try again but am afraid that it would lead (as it did last time) to the end of the relationship.
Then again, should be better now as this one does not suffer from chronic verbal diarrhoea,...... most of the time.  ::)

Everyone rides for many different reasons but one of mine is that nobody can talk to me while I'm riding.
It's that perfect moment when you finally get some peace and quiet, and even if you do get someone who really, REALLY wants to talk to you, you can usually outrun them.  ;D

My tightness has nothing to do with the 3 years of my yoof spent in Somerset.
It's because I am ¼ Scots.  ;D

[fatharry]

My wife won't go anywhere near bikes...and like Boomer i enjoy the solitude of my own little bubble ...even when riding in a group. I do have a headset...but only so i can listen to tunes on long slogs!! ;D

[patrick]

We use an autocom and more often than not when I speak I get silence as she's too  busy admiring the scenery!

What does bug me is when she says, out of the blue... "OH LOOK!" and it could be a bird of prey, or a nice view.

The best autocom utterance was "Oooooo, I thought we were going to fall off!" when, in the last 8 miles of a 250 mile day trip. I was really enjoying my self and the bike leaned well over through a left hander and it took Pam a bit by surprise.

[Kevin]

Here is SWMBO who, as everyone who has looked at our web site will know, is a saint. Fortunately she loves bikes as much as I do and has been on the back for around 16000 miles so far this year.

We also use an Autocom and wouldn't be without it.
