Yesssireee! His FIRST ride day this happened - OMG!

Also TJ - I've seen a post on another forum where a guy removed the rubber on the pillion footpeg, and attached a 'platform' or 'drink bottle base' to it, which the drink esky sat on.

If I happen across the post again, I'll drop it here for you.

If you have a tank bag just put a camelback in it.
most have moveable mouth piece which can be bent to fit under a full-face.
no mention of velocity in the bike accident report.
me thinks a little bit too much throttle
seen a few speeding wrecks but none like that.
