wouldnt it be uncomfortable to use them as footpegs since to put your feet on them youd have to lay on the seat or something?

This works for passengers sitting on the luggage rack. Two locals use them, one for his girlfriend and the other guy carries his buddy. Personally I find it too risky for a motorized bike.

it is actually against the law to ride double on a bicycle. unless the bicycle was meant for two riders! the police overlook bicycle riders, especially kids who ride on handlebars or foot pegs.

unless it was meant for two and has a seat and foot rest for a passenger its illegal to ride double. its more a safety concern than anything! I remember when I was 5 and the neighbor girl decicded to put me on the bicycle rack for a ride and got my foot ate up by the spokes. ouch that hurt, I looked down and saw blood. the other neighbor saw this and ran over and scooped me up from the road and ran me home. my foot and especially my big toe was skinned up real good and have a scar to show to this day.

No rickie it isnt unless the vehicle was designed to carry 2 people. The police are more apt to pull you over for a safety violation then if the bike is just illegal. Its in their training to look out for folks. Doing stupid stunts will get their attention too.
