When I was living in Europe, I was driving at VT500C in my young years and thought the PC was a great alternative... until I actually drove one. It is a motorcycle, but consider it more "open air mean of transportation". There is no real "life" or spirit in it. It takes you from point A to point B in relative comfort, but you miss the wish to take your bike... You get lot more guts out of a SilverWing honda scooter.
At the time I was using my bike everyday to commute (mostly city). If you want an oldy with comfort and humf, try the TDM850 yamaha. It's main default is being a Yamaha (nothing is as good as Hondas) but it is a good one, and I remember doing 140 mph on the highway in France, with high screen and top case in the back, sitting straight up, thinking... wouau... (did that only once, but I still remember it). So my advice : test drive it before to make sure you're "happy" on it !
