You can get by with it for short distances, but you've really got to push it to its limits and even then you are relegated to the old lady lane. I've done a few 40 mile or so (each way) pops on it, but it gets old after less than an hour. The seat is also not the greatest for long rides.
Definitely easy to learn on though, handles really well, good on gas, solid mechanically, decent ride for a light bike, and is more than powerful enough for everything else. There's a few ladies on here (smaller and lighter types) that have gotten theirs up to 80mph, so it might be all the bike your wife needs.
Good luck with the windshield. Let us know which one you get.
