I know this may sound a little away from the typical cicle but have you ever ridden a trike?
If you are into building they are fun. And for gosh sakes don't go putting any car engine like those hoss things. For power one of those RevTec 100 is great with the short pipes. At night they will see your fire. I say the trike because you can build it to exactly what you want. There are places that will build it for you and there are the prebuilt.
Anyway just a thought.
Good luck and have fun!

Happy trails,

If you are an experienced rider,you might want to take a look at the new suzuki Bandit 1250 or B-king. Those a re really big bikes. The B-King is said to be not well suited to two-up riding, however.

How about getting your wife her own bike? No matter what bike you buy, there can´t be much room for comfort left behind a guy like you

If you ride solo, a big dualsport like a BMW HP2/Megamoto or KTM 990 Adventure/950 Super Enduro might mork for you very well. They´re especially good for the knees, the angle is still comfortable even for very long-legged riders.

Nobody has said it, but you are going to be big on whatever you ride. You're a big SOB, no disrespect intended, you just are. If you've ridden sport bikes, you know what you have to do - just get used to it.

Someone suggested Victory - I'm not quite 6' tall and I fit comfortable=y on a Victory.
