I searched, couldn't find any previous threads about this for the XR 650L.

I usually don't enjoy, (and usually avoid for my own fun) carrying a pillion, but in the last month, I had to do it twice.
Apart from the obvious dynamics and handling changes, on the XR650L, is this generally a bad idea or not?

I don't really know what the tyre pressure *should* be for two up, what the *real* mass limit is for combined riders and I read alot of about "Weak subframes".

Should I avoid it? Is it ok once in a blue moon? Tyre pressure? Max weight?

Oh, and I have a kouba on it, for my kortgat...  :bueller:
