I remember a long time ago, that there was a cowhide kidney/weighlifters belt that had handles on the side for passenger to hang on to...I always wanted to get or modify one...just never got a round to it, but that way the passenger & rider have a choice. Remember, motorcycling is "--acceptance of risk" as a grandparent, I feel more than anyone that safety is a concern, which is why if they are really small it is only around the block only.
