I have seen many old Harleys that you could say the same thing about! :-]

Well, we sat on a Kawasaki Versys, but my wife didn't like the height nor the way the passenger was split up from the rider.

However, we did see a Kawasaki W800, and she was able to sit on the back. She liked it, and it's similar to what we're riding now. That also means bikes like the Triumph Bonneville and Moto-Guzzi V7 Classic are in the running, too.

Funny how my first consideration was Japanese, but my current list has two European bikes on it.

Keep messing with it and you'll find one that will call your name.

You're doing good, don't get in a hurry.

Another thing is to ride a bunch of other bikes...one will whisper to you...
