to pillion on a fino is not easy. fino is like a single seater bike. not suitable to pillion in terms of bike power, handling, bike's weight n stability. so if binny wanna pillion, u can only pillion someone of ur size or slightly bigger to have better control.

 

someone with ur size, its not easy to handle a bike. but if u know how to handle a bike, a runner or even X9 wun pose a big prob to u cos of the low CG of the bike. to pillion, the bike must oso have the power to overcome the weight issue. this is oso something u need to consider.

 

try pillion somewhere where there is not much cars. to pillion needs practice. just take ur time.

yeah, take it slowly, don't end up changing suspensions or tire puncture because passenger overloading... :cheeky:

Lucky for me, the way my bike was designed, It was meant to be ridden alone. But I did try a few times with girls around 50kg. Quite an experience. One even know how to strap up the helmet and can really follow me and lean in together.. The other likes to twitch around here and there. I have to remind her everytime that if I bank to the left, she has to follow else we will crash and I wont be paying for her medical bills :p

 

Then I pillioned 2 colleagues who used to ride bikes. This 1 then standard. Everything also know. But 1 of them lost his license due to drunk riding. This bugger tried to make me go even further down while taking a corner. He kept saying, "CAN GO DOWN!! DONT SCARED!" It was my 2nd month of riding.. :(

 

Last 1 I pillioned a buddy of mine, 90kg.. I had to change my stock suspension after that. 700 bucks flew out of my wallet :(

 

omg, shd ask him to pay instead.

ya, and the pickup is really slow and mostly it will wobble alot. Dont really like to go crowded place too cos always attracts alot people attentions, dont know why and they make me even stress and nervous when pillioning. :pity:

its a fino mah. if its a runner, this wun pose as a big prob though but runner's seat height is alot higher. but when u r on the move, u r good to go. but then buy already, dun regret. at least learn to ride confidently 1st, then u start to pillion. u just got ur licence rite? so u r still weak in all areas like bike handling, judging road conditions, road movements n so on. it really needs time n got time, u really have to ride ard to discover ur strengths n weakness when u r on the road.

 

ppl c a girl, small size n ride a cute fino!! if i'm on the road, i will oso b attracted to take an extra look cos its rare to c girls on a bike. so its natural to feel stress. but if u manage to pillion a guy ard 60kg, u will invite a wow n envious eyes... :angel:

ic... just got licence ah... well, like said, it takes time to brush up ur bike handling n pillion riding. i test ride my colleague's fino. i have to agree that it can really manuvere well. BUT at slow speeds only. given at speed of 80km/h++, the bike will b unstable. scooters n kups have very small capacity fuel tank. that is something the owners have to bear with it.

 

just curious, do u intend to take 2A?

got once i pillion my colleague....was doing a left turn..he lean his body to the right...my bike went into opp lane with on-coming traffic!!! wah lau ae...luckily manage to pull back to my lane in time... i tink that time nearly wet my pants sia lol..

 

gt 1 time i pillion-ed my bro.wanna turn right den he leaned his body 2 de left.nearly langgar kerb :faint: my heart wanna come out of my chest oredi.

 

riding is dangerous. ytd got this ah pek came to me and tell me don ride at expressway. zzz.

 

i ride a fino, just bought it recently.

 

if like dat haf 2 go thru all the small rds.alot of traffic lites.even worst.jus believe in urself aitez :thumb: n dun wry.u r nt de only 1 who can't pillion-ed.i gt banned frm pillion-ing n i oso told myself nt 2 pillion any1.de last time i pillion my sis.she flung wif my bike & i gt stuck 2 de car.jus glad im still alive.lol.+ she's supa heavy & bfor leavin our place she said skali accident den rly tio.damn her :lol:

 

Eh.. nope. Not funny at all.

 

I once pillion a male colleague who never touch a motorcycle before, on my TA150. As usual, briefed him on what to do, when to lean in with me, etc. Anticipated his uneasy shufflings and fidgeting and compensated accordingly. He eventually got relaxed enough to close his eyes.

 

So far so good until PIE during peak hours. Being a habitual lane splitter, I cruised at around 90km/hr through the packed expressway... Until he opened his eyes, watched in horror as I squeezed in between a lorry and a van, he let out a blood curdling scream and jumps (not out of the seat, but a literal knee-jerk reaction). My balls dropped and I screamed with him. o_O

 

 

So... when two guys screams together... No, it is not funny at all. :dot:

 

heeee.sry bro.dis rly jus made my day.somemore feelin slpy in sch.dis gt me laughing hard.heee

:clap: I love my cute, small bike! :clap:

u try pillion lighter ppl 1st then after some time, then try heavy ones. cos when u pillion heavy ppl, the weight of the bike shifted to the back hence making the front very light n wobbly. n 2B bikes r light, they cannot maintain the stability.

 

mayb u can try to counter pillion with binny with ur individual bikes someday. just a meet up to make new friends oso... can exchange pointers n view regards to pillion...

ban? no need lah. take ur time. unless after sometime, u got the passion to ride on then its a different thing. but still, u will still get a class 3 but buying a car is another.

riding or pillion, bike heavy is not an issue when the bike move off. its the bike's power that u need to control. after which, u shd b ok with pillion liao.

 

haha. not a bad idea huh.

hahaha... then put time put place for pillion riding training!! :p

huh? those laps round the circuit called practices? just a feel la! firstly, not your own bike, secondly, you are too blur with all the trainings and obstacles to really experience it.
