.) This bike was never designed to haul 2 people. Yeah it has pegs but is only intended for quick little jaunts with two aboard. She will probably enjoy her own ride anyways.

2.) Don't know what to tell you here, no windshield or fairing of any kind and the bike weighs 300 lbs. Thats why the cruisers weigh a lot more and have lots of wind protection. This is a dirtbike with blinkers.

3.) Again, this is a 15 cu. in. single cylinder engine. It makes its power by revving. Go get a V*twin if you don't want to rev it.

4.) There are 3-4 after market companies that make bigger tanks. Acerbis, Clarke, IMS, and Baker makes an auxillary tank to go along with your factory tank.

Wow this post is a blast from the past. A little update:

We rode a whole hellova lot more two up last season (it was actually quite entertaining since you'd have to plan ahead for hills & such), but she loves it now. So got some big stuff coming up that will prevent it this upcoming season, but the eventual plan is probably a 600+ because she really wants to ride with me more and be more comfortable. The tiny tank I've simply gotten used to and since my eventual plan is to sell the thing I'm not dumping any cash into it other than oil changes and fuel.
