I have had a Thruxton for over 2 years now and love it. No problem there. The problem comes in the form of my wife who wants to go riding with me (this in itself is not a problem), but riding 2 up on a thruxton s ux. So I would like the opinion from those of you who ride two up on a newer (05, 06 Sprints). I am looking to add another bike to the stable that is comfortable enough for full day outings with 2 riders. Will the Sprint fill that bill or should I look outside the triumph family? My main concern is the comfort of the 2 riders, as I have read a good deal on the sprint and it seems a very capable machine for touring - but is it great for 2 up riding? If it makes a difference my wife is 5'2" and 110 lbs. and I'm 5'11' and 165 lbs. Thanks for your help.

John
