Taking a vacation with the wife doesn't sound like a vacation to me either
Get her her own bike, she can pack her own gear...problem solved. My parents circumnavigated North America last summer on a pair of BMW F650's, some 6000 miles round trip in a little over a month. Camped every night but one.
Not making you wrong, just saying it's possible. And, there is a TON of touring gear out there being made just for the 1000rr, from helibars, gps mounts, and high-profile windscreens to expandable soft luggage and bags...Cycle World (or Motorcyclist...don't remember which) had a dediacted article about it earlier in the year. Stuff was relatively cheap too...I want to say they clocked in the full conversion (bars, windscreen, giant tail duffle, twin saddlebags, and monster tankbag) for a little less than a grand.

Yeah, well.... send me a pic of how you load 2 people, tent, 2 sleeping bags, cook stove, cooler with food, clothes and what ever else a woman needs to pack onto a CBR 1000rr and I may consider it........ till then, for me, trailering is the difference betweenbeing able to ride on vacation or leaving it at home.........
