I don't like the new water cooled motor in the GS. I don't trust them.
The 800XC is a nice bike. Two up though. I don't know.

I've been on a Tiger 800 XC (and now an XCx) for 5 years now. They're great machines (I wouldn't have got the second one were they not) and no issues touring two up. Especially the new XCx with its WP suspension.
Sure, it's no Goldwing, but my other half has been comfy enough and we managed Morocco two up and with ludicrous quantities of luggage.
Still glad she's getting her own bike this year, mind you!
