Tark Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 So I went on a ride this past weekend with my wife. This was the first time I've rode two up with my FZ-07. I'm 5'9 and I can almost touch flat footed. When my wife got on I was able to be flat footed and a bend in my knee almost like i was on a cruiser. I was just wandering if you guys or gals who have rode two up have experienced this and see any problems with it.(dont know much about bike suspension) I was wanting to go to blood mountain with my wife but if there is a safety concern then i wont. BTW I'm 200 LBS and my wife is 135. Is this weight too much for the FZ-07? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest unknown Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 That isn't too much weight for the bike. I think the GVWR is ~375 lbs IRC. You will want to increase the stiffness of the suspension with the wrench that was supplied when you bought your bike. Put it up to a stiffer setting and you should be fine. Keep in mind I wouldn't be dragging knees with a passenger but cruisng should be just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tark Posted August 5, 2014 Author Share Posted August 5, 2014 Awesome thanks. I'll have to look up how to adjust it. And you don't have to worry about me I'm no Street-Rossi. No knee dragging for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
