He/she could have rounded off the edges a little. Fuel economy and performance must be down somewhat. Could it be that the pillion hates the wind?

I can't tell for sure....is that a Honda Rebel 250?

Does it have enough power to haul 2 people (2 helmets on bike), and that 4x8 sheet of plastic?

That was my initial thought as well.   Nothing more than a big sail.

Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut between the seat and the handlebars. Make sure yours isn't too tight or too loose.

The rider won't have to worry about any high speed wobble - likely the bike won't be able to pull anything more than 3rd gear!

except in strong tailwinds you may have difficult in keeping the front wheel down... maybe the rear wheel too.   Roll Eyes
