I've gone 2-up on a 200cc before, it wasn't so bad actually.
This is what the bike looked like with our gear:
The only problem was that the rear suspension didn't hold up very well, it sagged really badly by the end of the two weeks that my friend was traveling with me.
Also we went very very off-road sometimes and it wasn't a problem, could easily put my foot down with the low ride height of this bike.
Just one thing, if you're new to motorcycles then I don't think Peru is the place to learn, in my opinion you should definitely get many kms of riding experience back home in NZ beforehand. I've never seen more risks being taken than those of the drivers in southern Peru.
