His next bike was an early 80's 650 and it was much better. His V-strom 650 was awesome two-up. I would expect that a modern 750 like yours should be okay.
I've never doubled anyone but I would assum that riding alone and riding two-up would make the bike seem like two completely different bikes.
Two scrawny kids like you and Mike would do well on a 125....
Me, I need the left bank of my V4 just to get me rollin', never mind up to speed... I think I outweigh the two of you put together. LOL
(And just incase you don't believe me, I'm DOWN to 273lb from 285lb...)
