What should you anticipate if you want to take a pillion passenger with you?

You answered correctly. When taking a pillion passenger, a motorcycle’s handling changes: in corners, the extra weight can make steering feel different and require you to lean more carefully. Additionally, the motorcycle will take longer to overtake because the added weight reduces acceleration. However, braking distance is not reduced—extra weight usually makes stopping distances longer, not shorter. Knowing these effects helps you ride safely with a passenger.
