2020 RT with Sway Problem - need advice

Most of the time my passenger is my wife and she has rode with me for over 40 years. One thing she does is when we get into a curve is she will lean her upper body into the turn just like we would be doing on two wheels. It is amazing what that little bit of weight transfer does for the Spyders handling. Talk with your passenger it may be worth a try.

Oh man, I always HATED when I was on my motorcycle and my passenger would lean her upper body into a turn like Valentino Rossi or Kenny Roberts. It would sometimes catch me by surprise, lol.

They don't really have to do that on a Spyder.

But they probably would benefit if they did. The vector force of gravity pulling down on the torso added to the vector force of centrifugal force pulling it to the outside of the turn, will result in a net force along the body pulling it down toward the seat.
