What a friendly, helpful lot you are. Thanks. I'm pretty sure we'll be going for a Savage for her. Just looking around (Bay Area, CA) for any used ones before shelling out. Seem very rare.
I have to buy a bike too and am dithering about a middle size cruisery style maybe a Virago or I'm quite attracted to the Suzuki SV650 which has quite an upright position - initially wanted something that we could go two up on but now reading your archives I see that an LS650 seems to be comfortable with two. Will it climb hills thus loaded? I'm about 160lbs, she about 120lbs.
