Yeah my other half won't go near the back end of a bike now. Back in the day we went all over Europe, 2 up on a GSXR1000. I'd convinced her that was luxury after a trip to Devon on my old TL1000s with a gaffa-taped copy of the Guardian weekend as a pillion seat.
Buy the Daytona already. It probably will get nicked but then again, anything else will too. Life's too short, etc.

It's probably better than looking at the Gold Wing, BMW K or Ultraglide which are all amazing continental cruisers but a lot of weight and responsibility for the rider.
Maybe encourage her to take up riding instead. Then you get 2 lightweight fun bikes. You can easily get to Spain and back on a 600 sports.
Think we've all been down the comfy pillion rabbit hole, your darling other half says she needs a comfortable pillion seat, what you hear is look at buying a new bike :) I've actually gone ahead and bought what I think is the best compromise only to have it vetoed after 1 short ride.
