Some background:
I've been riding well over 40 years. Some of my best trips were 2up with the Squeeze on a 1200 GoldWing. (even scraped pegs at the Gap)
When my hips got bad the Wing had to go. I can still ride solo no problem but 2up rides don't last long before I'm feeling cramped and don't have room to move about to relax my wonky hip,leg, knee action.
I think the large expanse of floor board offered by the Burgman design may give me the room to move my legs around and be less cramped.
I was ready to pull the trigger on a bagged up 650 when the Squeeze pushed back. "Is it a real bike?" "Will I feel safe??"***
So the Big Ask: Any Burgman owners who'd being to swap bikes for a short ride?
Of course I have the trusty KLR but I'm willing to sweeten the deal with my white pride and joy if I have to.
Feel free to PM me.
*** Were ATGATT people but she had no problem riding in shorts and a T when I rented a twist and go in Greece. We both had a ball on it so I'm struggling with her objection a little.
