I've been told so many times that it's a silly idea to try and do this trip with two people on the one bike, but that just makes me more determined to do it

No.3 Apart from any legal repercussions from the police as you will be riding illegally any travel as in medical insurance you take out will probably be invalid, certainly UK insurers want to see proof of a full motorcycle licence before paying hospital or repatriation bills if your claim is a result of a motorcycle accident, no licence and you are on your own.
There is no problem at all in doing this on one bike, just make sure the passenger is comfortable and you will have to cut luggage right down to a minimum, as one of you has to get a motorcycle licence why not both of you at the same time and share the riding?
