    I think like everything having a bigger displacement bike would help in having a passenger however with a 250 its definitely do able. Out of all the bikes you have im betting the ZX-14 probably performs that task the best.

      The 14 with clipon risers is definitely the best for 2 up, but you can go 2 up on just about everything that has rear pegs and a seat.

    I haven't carried a passenger yet. Even my 650 would struggle to pull with someone on it I reckon, up a hill etc. but more than enough on the streets and highways.

      Nah, a 650 would be fine. I only had to drop the 250 down one gear to go up that hill in the video.

    I spent last 3 days for few hours each day and ima tell you even a 2017 suzuki sv650 struggles a little. It can get up to 110 but oh it struggles. Consider I weigh 220 and a girl 110-130 that’s a lot of extra weeight but I can’t wait to upgrade to a bigger bike to carry passengers and be as quick as

      It ain't going to pull like a freight train but an sv650 shouldn't have achy trouble.

    That bike sounds like a lawnmower. LOL. I've got a ZX10R and I've never had anyone on the back of my bike. But it would be scary to not be able to accelerate out of a bad situation. I've gotten out of some potentially bad situations with the bigger power. Yeah, you technically can do 2 up on a small bike, but there's additional risks that come with it.

      It IS a lawnmower 😂 It's surprisingly fun, though. I understand the small bike life now. It does suck not being able to accelerate out of situations, but these little bikes are so small that it doesn't really matter, you can maneuver around just about any obstacle.
