Hi guys

So I finally convinced my girlfriend to go on the bike Very Happy
Only problem is she's very small and light 5'3" and very skinny which is great for speed but she slides around a bit on the back of the bike and complains that there's no padding on her or the bike seat!!! Laughing

Are there any solutions? Can anyone recommend somewhere to get the seat modified with extra padding and a non-slip material?
I'd probably also like to get my seat done too so I can last the ful 150 odd miles of the tank without my arse going to sleep!

Also as a side note I'm 12.5 stone and my girlfriend is around 7.5 stone, will the suspension on the ninja need adjusting or is the factory setting adequate?

Something like https://www.bustersclassic.co.uk/proddetail.asp?prod=TRIBO would be a good start. Plenty of places stock them

Those no-slip covers are good. Thumbs Up

When you say factory settings, does that mean factory settings when taking a pillion?

In my manual it says full rear preload and minor adjustment to rebound when taking a pillion and luggage.
