Hi Kase, Welcome to the HUBB

For 2 up in Central America if you are travelling slowly a sorted out DR would be OK and you can get off the beaten track better.
But I cant recommend one for an extensive fairly fast tour of North America using Highways/Freeways.
For that I would find a used V Strom 650, but if you are prepared to compromise and you are looking for a 650 thumper, the DR will do the job, just make sure the suspension has been sorted out, shock revalved and stiffer springs front and rear as a minimum.
The only other limiting factor is your height, Im 5'10, 180 lbs, my wife is 5'6, 115 lbs, if you are any taller than this, id look for a V Strom or it will be quite cramped.
