How old or Tall does my nephew have to be to ride pillion?

My Nephew who is 7 is so impressed with my taking my DAS. He loves the 125 (ahh he's just a kid)

He keeps asking me if he can ride on the back. Obviously I can't take him for a spin on the 125 but I was thinking when I pass the DAS.

Does he have to be a certain hieght or age?

According to the theory, there is no age limit, just that he can reach the pillion pegs and hold on in a safe manner...

Yeah theres no age / height limit but common sense.
The official blurb is that they can reach the footpegs & wear an approved helmet.
Shouldnt be difficult for him reaching the pegs as they're designed for midgets anyway lol!
I used to ride pillion on my uncles at about that age!

I'd echo both these thoughts. You can get really nice kiddies bike kit too, saw some the other day, couldn't believe how small it was! lol

Yeah I want to be safe.. I am planning on taking him to trail riding course for kids.

Get him riding in a safe environment.

Good plan, I plan to do that with my son when he's older, trouble is he's not due to be born till the middle of September, so got a while to wait yet

I was on a bike in the womb. On the fastest bike in the world at the time (GPZ900). Not sure how old I was when I first went on the back, but was young as I can not remember being too young.

Yes ours has been too right at at the start, but I think my OH would just fall of now lol
