The only thumper that can really be ridden two-up is the KLR-650. It is the only one with the frame and seat.

The KTM 640 ADV, the old NX-650 Dominator (and the XL-650), and the DR-650 with a custom saddle (see the DR650 thread) are the only other ones that seem to come close.

None of the Enduro race bikes (even the TE-610/630) have the frames and the ergos.

Read a lot of threads, ride a lot of bikes. Make up your own mind.
