Yep, I think those were it, maybe in my mind there was a passenger seat and a wheelie bar.
The BMW scooter has a passenger seat outside the roof/wall as an option, in place of the luggage box (IIRC)

Do I see a seat belt on the passenger?
Looks like a 4/5 point harness...

Found it:
http://www.a-sider.com/produits,ingles.html
Its a handle that attaches to your tank and gives passengers both the ability to wrap their arms around you, for balance purposes, and a sturdy handle to hold on to. Pricey, but worth it if you're doubled up alot.
I do not trust anything that lists "Instability" as the main benefit!
From thier website:
"The main benefit of A-SIDER is, above all, the passenger's instability."

"PICS OR IT DIDNT HAPPEN"
"F**K U IT HAPPENED"
Suzuki Blvd M109R " Sliver " = assassinated by cager
PW 696 " Pearl " = traded in
M1100 " Loki " = Viking God of mischief ( Goddess in this case )
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving in a pretty pristine body, but rather to come in sliding sideways all used up screaming F*CK YEAH WHAT A RDIE!!

My girlfriends daughter slipped off the back of the bike last year. I was at a red light behind to cars and when I took off (not fast because I was behind the cars) she slipped off about 1/2 way through the intersection. At the time I had just put on a Corbin seat and it was pretty slippery and she wasn't paying attention )like a typical teenager). She slid back and hit both legs on the end of the cans then grabbed onto something and stopped herself from falling backwards but basically slid down the tire on her stomach. She had gloves, helmet, jacket ans jeans on so all that happened was a little road rash through the jeans and on her stomach where her jacket rode up from sliding down the tire. By the time I stopped the bike she was already up and standing next to the bike.
She didn't ride much more last year but this year I got the Tribo seat cover and she really likes it because she can't slid around at all with it on there.
The GF can't stand the Tribo seat for the same reason though. She doesn't like being stuck to the seat. Luckily she pays more attention to what's going on and hasn't come close to falling off the stock seat.

DUDE.... THAT'S BRUTAL!!! It's one thing when a squid shows off and wrecks, but it's another thing when the passenger eats sh*t becuase the rider is an idiot...
If that were my daughter there would be one less squid and one huge pot of calimari.
