Just look at your manual for your bike. There should
be suggested suspension settings as well as tire
pressure for solo vs. two-up riding.
My GF has ben riding with me for about a year now,
pretty aggressively at times....she places her head on
the inside of each turn if time allows her to switch
(if we are in very tight S curves she judges herself
and may just stay put so as not to upset the bike.)
Basically I tell her to stay inline with my spine. If
mine leans, then just stay inline with it.
Good luck and enjoy it!
