gear rack

[Speed Demon]

Just a word of warning Speed Demon.

You should NEVER EVER use a bag or rack as a back rest.
It is really unsafe for a couple of reasons.
1. It puts too much weight at the rear of the bike and upsets the handling a great deal.
2. On a busa, a slip of the throttle wrist and you will be going over backwards faster than you can correct.
3. It puts an enormous amount of load on the rear subframe and could quite easily snap it.

Even the best bag rack will only allow about 40kgs of weight to be supported and if you go adding body weight to it look out.

Now you can call me a wowser but I have seen a couple of the above happen in the past few years.

Thanks for your concern about the horsepower & handling of my busa, but i am 44 not 14 i DO know how to ride
The handling of my bike is comprimised when my wife comes with me coz it dont like 200kg on it
I didnt say she was sitting on top of it i said leaning on it
Once again thank you for the "look out comment" and the twist of the throttle concern but sorry you are not my mum or dad.
