Welcome! I think you'll enjoy the Ninja 1000 ABS (aka N1K). It is a fun bike with a very good power to weight ration but a very easy to ride motor. You might find that the N1K isn't a bad touring bike either.

I have a K16GT for when I am going to do some serious miles and/or if my wife definitely wants to ride. She likes the heated seats on the K16 a lot better than the saddle on the N1K. All in all though she doesn't mind spending time on the Ninja either.

I am glad you are enjoying your 2nd childhood on the bike. According to my wife, I never left my 1st childhood.
