Year 2000. On back of a mates Cagiva Mito which was putting out something like 40bhp. I had no idea what that meant.

I nearly died many times.

It was a stunning bike though, would have been worth it.

Went on the back of Fisty's bike last year one of the best pillion rides I've had so far. Was quite fun as well. If weird not much for being pillion on a sports bike. Although saying that a member still owes me a pillion ride.

Think it must have been 2012 BCF BBQ when I still had noob plates.

In fact that was the first time I've ever been on a bigger bike, period. Even if it was pillion.

It was Paddy that peer-pressured me to jump on and ride.. his behind. (XR 400?SM) Thumbs Up

I remember just next to my arse there was a big fairing with a melted hole right through it from the exhaust heat.. Laughing

I shat my pants as soon as we pulled out onto the main road, never felt anything like it acceleration wise. (Was used to a 4t 125 to be fair) and with true paddy style I remember hearing the rev limiter many times.

What happened next was pure lulzy. I hear a muffled 'SIT BACK A BIT' coming from his helmet and so I did.

Next thing I know the front wheel was in the air.

Poopy time.

I was hanging on for grim death whilst paddy gave the front tyre a rest.


So thanks once again. Thumbs Up

I've not been pillion since.

Thumbs Up Karma

I think in a field on the back of a DT, briefly. Did not like being thrown about by a friend that was even more insane than me. Enought to make me want one. That's got to have been about 20 years ago now. I feel fucking old.

I fucking hate riding pillion on nearly everyone except my old Dad. I've been on the back of his bike since I was about 5! Getting a lift of some of my mates, some of whom ride pretty similar to myself and who I've ridden with for over 10 years can be terrifying. Its the sight difference in lines that does it to me. I find the best thing to do, if you HAVE to ride pillion, is to shut your eyes and try to relax a bit.

TL;DR About 18 months back.

Maybe three months ago.

The two of us, on an undressed Goldwing, from Docklands to New Cross, hardly a massive journey.
I don't know how the 'Wing survived! Shocked
(actually come to think of it, its currently "resting" with a suspected fucked-up gearbox acquired several weeks later ... )

Decided then and there that it was time to lose a bit of weight and buy my own bike.

So I've started with the bike purchase first, obvs Laughing

Rode that.

Had my licence all of about a week at the time and had barely got used to the powerz of a user freindly GS500. I couldn't start it, I couldn't pull away smoothly on it and it had a gearbox like a piece of farm machinery. Much love for that bike.

Nearly a year ago on the back of my mates CBF 125 in a car park.

Before that 2 years ago on my mates GN 125 up and down a quiet rode (on L plates)

Safe to say not being in control of the bike isn't the best feeling.

There's more than enough risk in spamming these days. It's twice as dangerous as horse riding don't you know. Probably risk averse

Perhaps the attraction is in firmly gripping another man from behind?
