Any suggestions on a lightweight bike that does 2-up well? It needs to be under 400 to go on a rack on the back of a RV. My busa is too heavy, and I want to have it at home anyway.
On the last RV, I used a 650 thumper but it (the bike) couldn't keep up with traffic on interstates. I bolted a rack on the back of the RV and winched the bike up (pic).
The best plan would be to get a GSXR-1000 if I could make it comfy for my wife - she doesn't like riding with her knees in her arm pits.
An old Bonneville would work, but then it doesn't always (work).
SV750 or SV1000 is another thought but the listed weights on the Suzuki website are contradictory: 410, 391, 370.
Any ideas or lessons from experience are appreciated.
Thanks, John
