V4 Pillion On V4

Discussion in 'Panigale' started by Flatty, Jun 15, 2020.

  1. Is this possible? I was finally about to pull the trigger on a V4S when I read a review (just to assess reliability), which said you couldn't get a pillion on one. As I have to take my lass to or from school a bit, this is a deal breaker

  3. Yes bud! You can get rear foot pegs and a rear seat! Be a bit uncomfortable though like most modern sports bikes but I used to take my daughter to school on the back of my zx10r so if she’s a twitch you’ll be fine

  4. 2018 and 2019 bikes included a rear seat and pegs (usually in a box). No idea about the 2020 bikes.

  5. Thanks. The article I read said you couldn't. She's grand on the 1098 so I'd imagine it'll be about the same.

  7. 2020 V4 and V4S also come standard with the pillion kit as well as the solo ducktail. The V4S also comes with a lithium battery charger.

  10. In fairness, when I first passed the test about five years back, a lad that works for me who used be a motorbike mechanic said he'd found me a bargain, so I bought it without a thought. My brother was absolutely horrified that it was a Harley. Shaking his head saying "what the fcuk did you buy that for?" I sold it after a year, but she had the indignity of getting dropped to school on that for a while.
    She has had to put up with a lot.

  13. That looks like something you'd see in Borneo, where a family of four on a scooter is a common site.

  16. The wife has been on the back of mine a few times. She said it was more comfy than my old 1098

  20. You lucky bastards. My dad had a Messerschmitt KR200. It didn't go so I had to push it to school.
