Took my girl out on my new bike today :)

[Pol Anorl]

She loved it!
Got my first real bike as many of you know honda bros 400

Had about 2 hours to myself getting used to it and decided to ask if she wanted to hop on and go for a little ride, she was nervous as she knows how i used to full throttle my 125 everywhere.

Took it slowly to start with gradualy increasing speed to get her used to it, then i hit a "private road" and took it up to about 90 she held on tight for a few seconds but slowly released her death grip shows she enjoyed it

Maybe a new female in the biking scene

Sorry to rain on your parade but I agree with Phil.Riding with a pillion makes the handling of the bike very different especially if you have someone who's never been on the back before.

[Muscle Bike Rider]

Stages, stages, too soon for that in my opinion, get used to the bike first, then gentle rides with a pillion, its a different riding experience with someone one the back and as others have said your then responsible for someone other than yourself. I dont want to come across as a killjoy, I know your excited with your new bike so just take it easy and enjoy the experience.

Didn't carry any Pillions on my bike until about 2 month after passing test, mostly due to uncertainty of bike performance and handling. However I had carried pillions before that around a private woodland road and once before for a reason I won't go into so not really lack of experience with carrying them just learning the bikes little quirks and such.

Not saying you shouldn't carry pillions so soon after passing your test and getting a 400 but as with anything ride within your limits, confidence and keep common sense in check an extra 8-12stone on the back of the bike is going to increase stopping distances and affect handling bare that in mind.

Anyway glad you and her had fun

Hey fella, sounds like you had a blast.

The rest of you boring bastards - did you forget what it was like to be young or full of fun?

Dude, you're a tit. I felt so sketchy taking my girlfriend out on my bike for the first time. I lent her all of my spare stuff so make sure she had some decent protection, and even then I didn't go fast, maybe 50mph max? Just for a few miles, making sure she was comfortable, before gradually speeding up, especially as it was her first time on the back of a motorbike.. don't you care that you had your girlfriend's life in your hands before you twisted that throttle?

Fair enough if it's just you on it, but be a bit cautious when somebody else is in your care too.

Going fast in a straight line takes no skill, I hit 110 in the first 30 mins of owning a big bike. Stop raining on the guys fun, people are aware of there limits, I dare say I would do some things with a pillion that would make your brain boil. If it ain't out of your comfort zone there isn't a problem IMO.

I wasn't confident enough to carry a pillion that soon. Took me a few weeks and even then it was an experienced pillion (Pernig off here) albeit on my CG125

Took my o/h out on the ZZR and she loves it but was very nervous.

As long as you were in control and are aware of your limits fair play, I guess. I personally rode like a nun with her on the back.
