I'm into Adventure bikes as you know, Honda is coming out with the ADV X model scooter and is something I'd consider if they bring it to the US market..
I'm at that age also where throwing my leg over a tall ADV bike ends with me kicking at it half the time these days.
.....

I can apreciate that. That's one advantage of having a Guzzi jackal. They're low slung so mount and dismount is a breeze. The trade off is that at being almost 6'4" tall you're sitting with your knees wrapped around your ears and riding hard on your butt bone. I find that he'll seats or cushions can be your best friend at times...
