Motorbikes With No Rear Foot Pegs Or Rear 'handlebar'


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have a difficult time enough on the motorbikes that have the shelf thing instead of pegs, but a couple times, I've gotten on, and there's been nothing.... There's a couple models that don't have anything behind the seat to hold onto.

Mybe I'm just still a newb at the whole motorbike taxi deal, but still, is it wrong to have standards?

You need to develop a technique. Most motorcycle taxis have foot pegs but most have nothing for the rider to hang on to. I VERY seldom take a motorcycle taxi but when I do, I grab the driver by the sides above his belt. When he makes me nervous, I grab tighter. I am able to regulate his speed very well.

Sometimes the foot-pegs are a few inches higher up than normal, meaning you have to sit with your knees up by your shoulders. It may sound silly, but sometimes one automatically assumes there's nothing there if your feet don't connect with anything at the usual height, but just move them a bit further up...
