I commuted on a Suzuki SV650s 140 miles per weekday for a couple of years. It was about a 95% freeway commute. Very comfortable bike and good on power since it's a twin. Well mannered bike and comfortable the only drawback is minimal wind protection.

Swapped it out for a Honda Silverwing which was easily the most comfortable bike I've ridden but it's obviously more of a scooter. I changed out the windscreen for the touring windscreen and had excellent protection. It has a large trunk and very relaxed seating position. Being a 600 I had no problem accelerating through traffic and on-ramps.

Let us know what you end up getting.
