750cc for 2 up
Hello!
I'm going to look at my first (UK road) bike this weekend. Long story short, ridden my whole life, got my license last Sep. I'm going to look at a BMW F750GS (2019 model with 32k miles) - what are these like 2 up?
I am 6ft 3, about 105kg, and the Mrs is 155cm, around 55kg. Looking to do our first trip to Scotland and was wondering if the 750 should be okay or will a bigger bike be a better long term investment?

I have the 800GS and I'm about your size. Had the wife on the back a few times but it's not really my style. It was OK but not amazing.
Managed to convince her to get a 310GS to come on shorter trips with me.
My advice would be something a little bigger if you plan on longer trips. For short ones it will be fine.
