As a passenger I have gone as fast as somewhere in the 160's. This was on the back of a GSXR 1k which is one of the most uncomfortable bikes to ride on as a passenger, IMO.

I love speed and I love twisties. I don't think I'd ever have the figurative balls to do as I rider what I have done as a passenger. Which is the opposite of how most people feel, I know. And also part of the reason I'm a perpetual passenger. :idk:

how much seat time do you have as the rider?

Aside from being the perpetual passenger, I'm about the same way. I love riding with someone I trust who knows how to ride. I've been riding for as long as I can remember as passenger. I'm trying to improve my skills as a rider but it's slow going as I can often be too careful, think too much, and just overall fuck myself in the process. :lol:

I've had a couple passengers, nothing usually over 100.

As a passenger, probably close to 150-160 with Leon on his Gsxr 1k.

about 130-140 on my ex's ZX9 and his Gsxr 1k

Top speed? I was thinking curves in my previous post.
2-Up speed is probably 120ish with Little Taz on the back, by myself 160+ on an RF900.
Without a faring to hide behind, 150 +/- 5. That was on a vintage race bike that didn't have a speedo, so it is a calculated guess based on RPM/Gearing/tire dia etc. It was a 1000cc Triple Super-Bike at Road Atlanta before the changes to the back straight. Popping over the hill and down into the cavity was a real attention getter...:rockout:

The highway speed limit so around here, about 65.

The only person I've ever had on the back of my bike is my wife... when she's on the back, I ride very very conservatively.

when we were alot younger, Leon used to do high speed wheelies with me on the back. :lol: and I liked it. :panic:

Now, well, I still like it, but he won't do it. Lately he has been very "grandpa" like when i get on the back, which isn't very often actually.

That kinda sucks. I used to love riding wheelies with Wade. I kinda miss it. I'm too chicken shit to do them on my bike intentionally, so about the only way I get to ride wheelies is on the back. All I asked was for him to tap me on the leg to let me know he was going to "do something stupid" :lol:

I've never carried a passenger (in fact, removing the passenger pegs was one of the first things I did with both bikes I've owned). But back in my pillion days, the fastes I'm aware of was somewhere in the mid 130's. :panic: All I can say is NOT FUN... it was a fairly short burst (a few miles) but it was in a pack of 17 bikes, and it resulted in the whole pack getting pulled over (gee, big surprise), because we apparently passed an off-duty cop who called into the sherriff's department in the next county to warn them of our impending arrival. :lol:

you should look into the wheelie academy, they have speed triples with bars to keep them from flipping :dthumb:
