I used to bike decades ago (late 70's) on my Honda 125.
I let my licence go so I have to renew my permit and license in Illinois.
I'd like to get a 2 person bike (for wife) that is comfortable for 2nd person on a 2 hour drive before heading back. As well as option for fibreglass saddle bag(s) and backrest.
Last is I never like the big bikes. KZ440 or one size up was nice. So I guess I'm looking for a small cruizer that has OEM options for longer trips.
Suggestions with general costs ? Few or more years old is fine.
Whats old is whats new again?

I've had my Vulcan 500 for about a year now. It's a great small cruiser and you can get the options you are looking for. I'm not sure I would recommend it for extended 2 up riding though. Just a feeling but I think you'll need something a little bigger.
I always follow the rules.
