My wife past her test last year at twenty-something (that's all I dare give :exclaim
She fancied a CBR600 or Diversion, but I knew she would find it hard to keep spinning as modern 600/4's don't move until the tacho has 5 digits showing and thought a twin would be better, she also likes to ride round the countryside on narrow roads and single track lanes (again hardly head down / bum up / 12,000rpm territory) and finally convinced her to start on a simpler machine, she quite liked the V-Strom so we found a tidy one of them.
She loves it, it really does do everything, she has now ridden my ER6F and liked the sportier feel and handling, but noticed to get the extra speed was hard work. She now thinks she needs more "power", but I know she means more grunt, any 600-4 will give more power, but probably give nothing extra until way past 7,000rpm whereas I think she needs something that pulls harder from lower down so she does not have to change down 3 gears every time she wants to overtake.
In March she will have held a full licence for a year and will be able to get demo rides more easily (with a new licence nobody wold let her test anything last year) and I will be getting her to try bikes like the TDM900 and Tiger 1050 as I think they will better suit her needs for more grunt and sportier handling but without sacrificing the comfort and position required for the back lanes.
I would highly recommend the V-Strom, but the looks may be a deal breaker, I tested a Versys and liked it, but she point blank refused to consider one on looks and I suspect your Daughter is unlikely to love the Versys if she dislikes the V-Strom and if the build quality on my '09 ER6F is anything to go on the V-Strom is way ahead as her 2005 30k Suzuki looks far better than my 2009 / 7k ER6F.
We will be looking at TDM900 / Tiger 800 (Although I think this is too revvy) / Tiger 1050 and anything else she takes a fancy too when we start going around the bike shops, the TDM's and Tiger 1050's are very common and will be easy to find plenty of good examples at fair money.
