I have started to cast about for other bikes and so thanks for the suggestions.
with my weight the 90 would probabaly only chug along at about 40-45 anyway!

I seem to remember you were planning a trip to Austria but had limited time to complete it. If so, you will need to use the autobahns and unless you really want to be a liability to yourself, you need a bike that will comfortably maintain at least 70-80mph.
I spoke to a German woman and her friend at Cochem on the Mosel, on their way back from Eastern Europe. She had a Kawasaki ER5 which in my opinion would be ideal for this guy's needs. I've ridden one and although they're nothing special, they're cheap, reliable and more than fast enough for touring at a sedate pace.
