Pffaf had a trade in multi 950, it was a 2018 and barely used, it was priced well, but I could probably convince them to sell it for a song...
I cant find it on their website anymore though

RT1250!

BMW RT has the best fairing by far for rider and passenger. A LOT better than even the Goldwing.

Those SuperDuke GT's are sweet rides! I've secretly liked them for many years.
All the extra's like quickshifters don't mean much to me though, considering my past bike history. Not saying I wouldn't enjoy them, just don't know what I'm missing, having never ridden with them.

quickshifters are a nice to have, cruise control is a must imo

if you do end up with SDR gt, go with apex imo, they'll let you test ride it with your wife, and they're an official KTM dealer

Once you start prioritizing passenger comfort, you’re going to be compromising performance and ‘fun’, although any bike is fun. Stick a passenger on the back of a Gold Wing, Tour Glide or BMW RT for a day; they’ll love you for it but you’ll spoil them for anything else!
I’d never want to take a passenger on my fun little XSR, I wouldn’t want to sit on that little perch.
That’s what the Harley is for.

It all depends on how much the relationship is worth.

and how big the passenger is

My wife is 6’2” and she’s been a passenger on pretty much every bike I’ve owned. Although she only lasted about 5 minutes on the Tuono - she said whoever designed the passenger seat must hate woman. She nicknamed the seat ‘the clit-killer’!

The wife on the back of the SDR would be meme material

My wife lasted 10 minutes.

When we got back home, she asked me "Do you think my ovaries are okay?"

Wife likes the Multistrada 1200/1260 (with Ducati topbox/backrest). Diavel was only other Duc that was comfortable enough. She didn't like the Super Duke or Super Adventure. Triumph Tigers (larger 1200 ones) were fine.
