Z1000 or a ZRX or something like that will make her want to ride with you more often. ZX6 isn't a 2 up bike (even if Kawasaki puts a seat back there).

I ride wife and kids behind me in the same seat i fit in ...it is the only way all of us feel safe and they have no problem as far as being comfortable.... It hurts my nuts a little but worth it to me as opposed to having them perched up on that dangerous ass lil seat leaning way forward just to hang on and then ready to fly off the back at any given moment if you were to give it any throttle worth a damn..

Anyway, pop the seat vinyl off, add in some foam and re-cover would be my suggestion. You might need to enlarge the vinyl if you put a lot of foam in.

I would rather them feel safe on the bike and risk my nuts then them never get on my bike again

The passenger seats on the '07-'08 are like glorified pizza slices. It's uncomfortable because I highly doubt Kawasaki designed these supersports with passengers in mind lol.

I know a lot of people that had older CBR600's supersport (single - duel seat things) but I don't like taking people on my bike all the time... that'e why the cowl went on my cowl yeasturday ans the rear pegs come off my bike today :-D lol
