30? Well, you have good taste for being a youngster. I and, I'm pretty sure Lee, can remember those days. Good looking young guys riding Old Man motorcycles........

Lee, I must say there's some envy when I first saw photos of the two of you touring on RS' that is one great motorcycle story behind and ahead of you guys!
My better half is dead set on a pillion most of the time but occasionally she gets the urge to perhaps try and I would love to teach her and get her a CB300 or something to manage the city commute and small weekend rides with friends.

You belong on the RR board, youngster! LOL!

I've had my fun on the CBR, tried the 1000RR from a colleague - hit 300kph on the abandoned airstrip we visit but it's a waste of money (and bike) for anyone not doing regular track days or getting their adrenaline high by being suicidal on public roads.

Finances permitting I'd perhaps get something in 600cc range for B-road fun (light/agile) solo but it's second to what the RS offers and I straddle the car/bike line so an MX-5/Miata would do wonders to complement the RS.

She should try having her own bike to see how she likes it.
Even if she decides to not ride full time it's good for her to learn and have her license.
A long time before Debbie got her first bike I asked her to learn how to ride and get her license.
If something happened to me on a trip she would not be stranded.
