F650gs
A newer F650GS sounds like it would do the trick. It has ~30 seat height and can be factory lowered. It also has an 800cc motor which is a site better than a 250.

Tiger
Triumph Tiger 1050 sounds like it would fit the bill pretty well. I think the top end on the Vee is ~125 and the Tiger is ~140.

Thanks for all the advice.
I'm going to try a few locations and see what is the most comfortable. I do like the idea of the "upside down" camera and rotating the photos later. Good tip.

Cut the cost of the bike
Lower the price of the bike by the amount of insurance $$ you received. You walk away with the same amount of cash and someone gets a good deal. :thumbup
