The key thing about this "not leaning" business is that you should keep your body in line with the bike, not straight up. Or you can look over the rider's shoulder in the direction of the turn - that is, if the bike is going left, look over the rider's left shoulder. Don't try to keep your body perpendicular to the road.

Have a talk with the driver before your ride. Different riders may have different preferences as to just what you should do with leaning and where a good place is to hold on. And you should work out a set of signals so you can tell the driver to slow down (or speed up) without using words.

Wear a helmet that fits you tightly. A loose helmet won't help very much - nor will one that can't pass DOT standards (if you're in Europe, I believe the standard is EU or CE). You'll see a sticker on the back of the helmet if it's approved.

depending on the type of motorcycle (but so far as i know this rule goes for all of them) get up close and personal with the driver, and under no circumstances should you move around too much. if he leans into something, go with him. my ex boyfriend used to go crazy when i would ride with him because he didn't tell me i was almost causing a wreck every time i would try to peer around his shoulder.

The biggest and best tip is do NOT lean opposite of the rider. You make the bike go straight so the rider must lean further which will freak you out even more.
Be still, lean with the rider. When braking brace yourself so you don't bang heads with the rider.
Just go over communications, i.e. signals for need to stop, we're going too fast, etc.
If the bike is equipped with adj. shock(s) the rider should stiffen the suspension up to compensate for the extra weight of the passenger. This is especially important with sport bikes as the handling is affected greater than on a cruiser type.
Have trust in who are riding with because your life is in their hands but remember that if you freak out you can cause a wreck.

As a passenger you should not lean. Leave the leaning to the rider. If you lean the wrong way you really make it hard for the rider to make the turn. On the other hand if you lean too much you also make it difficult for the rider. I always tell passengers to just sit still and leave the leaning to me. When I first started riding I had passengers leaning and it was very disturbing to me, so I made the no leaning rule. Since then I've had no problems.

How many miles will my Kawasaki Ninja 500R last?

relax and become 1 with the rider. imagine there is a line at each others' shoulders. keep them together. look into the turn with the driver. hold at the hips, never at the shoulders. never shift ur weight around when the bike is in motion. any weight shift will transfer to the bike and it will affect handling. always keep the feet on the pegs even when stopped to keep the bike in balance.
it helps if the bike has a backrest. u can lean back on that and enjoy the ride. a good backseater is 1 that the rider doesnt feel; the bike handles just as good double up as solo.

i have a honda bigred threewheeler 200 ive been told that t that you can ride it on water?

1. Wear protective gear. Your full-face helmet must fit.
2. Don't wiggle around.
3. Discuss leaning with the driver. If you have your arms around him, you're going to stay with him as he leans. If you're grabbing the back of his backrest (pillion seat) then he'll probably tell you not to try to lean.
