I have just learned to live with it. I think as mentioned earlier there is a bit of muscle memory in stop and go and they no longer seem to be problem. I also do not try any low speed parking lot stuff with her on the bike. Passenger off before parking and not back on until I am out of my space and in the clear to ride away.

Nice bike by the way!

I did see those in my search online. It was unclear if one of the five position changes was moving back and/or in tighter to the bike. Yes, they are a pricey solution...especially considering there is that list of goodies I wanna do [Stage 1 being one].

Now there’s an idea. I’ll have to check those out and see how they position. My guess is they will not be any tighter to the bike, which is the primary issue with these board mounts being an inch or so too long.
