Thanks for the tip about the Versys. 2-up-ability is essential, but if it can't take topbox and panniers together it's less useful. I'll have a read around about this.
I hadn't even considered the TDM (put off many years ago by Bike magazine's comment of 'don't say the name too quickly') but it looks like it might fir the bill - decent size/comfort/power but not too heavy. 190kg dry is a lot lighter than my old Bonneville, for example.
TDM goes on the list ... thanks.
