What do you say in the situation?
The situation:
My friend sat behind me when I was riding my motorcycle, and as we got to our destination, I wanted to tell him to leave the seat first because it would be easier for me to park the motorcycle. My question is:
What natural expression should I use if I want to tell someone sitting behind me to leave the seat (in a polite way).
Thank you!

I would just say "please could you get off first?" or "please can you get off now, because I need to park and I can't do that if you are still sitting on the bike."

"Could you hop off so I can park the bike?" (Polite but casual, as to a friend) -
"Would you mind getting off first so I can park the bike?" (Polite and more formal) -
"Hey, hop off so I can park the bike." (Slightly impolite due to the command. You'd probably use this with a close friend or sibling.)
