Ok, here's the situation. My wife hasn't rode her ninja 250 all year yet and I've been looking around to possibly sell both my 6r and her bike and just get something a little bigger that will be somewhat comfortable for her to ride 2-up with me for short weekend getaways. I've seen FJR1300's but they are a little too big and pricey for what I'm looking for. Is there something between the FZ6R and the FJR1300 in size, say maybe 750cc-900cc? I have looked online, but it seems all I can find is the 1300 size. I'm trying to keep the look of my current bike (FZ6R), since I love the ride, look, and everything about it. We need something to can hold both of our weights, 430-450 lbs, (not knowing true wife's weight, so making sure that it will still be safe to ride). I've seen in manual that my bike can handle 390lbs or so, but fear it will not be enough. Any suggestions? I want to stay with Yamaha if at all possible, but may stray to another brand if it will work out. I'm not really into the cruiser style look either. Thanks guys for any help you could offer my way!
