Default another new old rider

hello from new mexico,
haven't owned or ridden a bike in 30 years. marriage, kids, bills, the usual stuff. the wife and me have decided that its time for a bike, kids gone, still happily married, still have bills, but not as many.
i've owned a 67 650 bonneville, a 67 650 bsa hornet, and a 66 750 norton atlas. plus a few assorted japanese dirt bikes.
MC's sure have changed since the 60's. at this point in my life i'm open to any suggestions on bikes, say 800-1100cc for light touring, nothing long distance. i'm not wedded to any particular make or model, and don't feel obligated to own a harley.
the wife hates alot of vibration, were both 60 years old, so we need dependable. my god i've got a motor mouth, so i will end this now.don't be put of by the length, i'm usually quite brief.

semper fi
