I second this. My wife and I ride my '06 almost every Sunday that we can. Rear spring is preload adjustable by turning a knob, and the headlight also has a lever that lowers both beams to compensate for passenger weight. Seems that they thought of everything.
She really enjoys it too. Sits her comfortably, especially with the panniers attached and the Storm Case on top. They're very effective resting surfaces for the passenger, and hold water bottles, extra clothing, a pic-a-nic basket, the knic-knack stuff we end up buying when we pass an antique store, etc...
