Suzuki GSX-R 1000 Owners Manual: Carrying a passenger
Before you invite someone to be a passenger on your motorcycle, you need to be thoroughly familiar with motorcycle operation. Adjust tire pressures and suspension according to the tire pressure and loading section and the suspension section of this manual.
The passenger should always hold onto your waist or hips, or onto the seat strap or grab bar, as equipped. Ask your passenger not to make any sudden movements.
When you lean going around a corner, the passenger should lean with you. The passenger should always keep his or her feet on the footrests, even when you are stopped at a light.
To help prevent burn injuries, warn your passenger not to contact the muffler when mounting or dismounting your motorcycle.
