Guest dolph Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 It looks like there's pegs for a passenger. Has anyone out there had a passenger on there v11 sport?
kenr Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 but.. not like this 41011[/snapback] Ye, I can see that would definitely raise your center of gravity and upset the handling ...
jrt Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 ok, that was funny. To answer though- yes, you can carry a passenger. No, not for long. My wife lasts about 2 hours, then calls it quits. On the bike, ya'll, on the bike.
RichMaund Posted January 15, 2005 Posted January 15, 2005 That portion of the seat can be radically reshaped for better passenger comfort, But that means the cowl will no longer fit on the seat. There are a number of photos of these seats on my site below. Go to the seat photo page.

Ralph Werner Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 Dolph - go into "search" on this forum and put in "passenger". There are several threads that may give you some more helpful info about two up on the LeMans.
Mike Stewart Posted January 23, 2005 Posted January 23, 2005 I guess it depends on your passenger height. My wife is 5"3" and I have done 500+ mile days riding two up with luggage. While not as comfortable as my BMW R1100RSL due to a slightly more cramped riding position, we can do as many miles. By the way, I sold my BMW. Mike It looks like there's pegs for a passenger.
