When is the next bike swap happening? Anybody have the below i can rent or try out?

My Dad gave up his Dirt riding helmet on his last ride. Comments like "Too fast, Too Tall and Things Happen Too Quickly" stuck in my head. I refuse to give up on him because he just about keeps pace with me on the street in Sumo format, on my VFR or my 1090. Kidding but he is not that far behind. 

Years ago I sold my him my DRZ (in the For Sale section) for $1 on Fathers Day so he couldn't back out of joining me from time to time and using his normal excuse of $$. So, i decided to give him another bike on Fathers Day but with a twist so he really can't use the words "Fast, Tall, Quickly or i don't want to slow you down or always make you feel like you have to wait for me".  If we are on similar bikes then the mental part will help.

What i am looking for is the below low and slow bikes. Both can be the same or a combo. One for me and One for Pops. Newer the better. I haven't ridden any of these but i know what will work for my dad. 

2001-Present Yamaha TW200 ** Always wanted one of these

2017-Present Suzuki Van Van

2013-Present Yamaha XT250

2021 Honda Trail 125

Any Honda CT110 but a 1980

I have things to trade like a 01' Suzuki DRZ400E, 08' KTM 950 SE, 74' Yamaha RS100, 01' Honda VFR and if really needed my 07' KTM 450EXC.

One down (Mine) and one to go. I think i'll let him try mine before i waste any $$ on something else. He is pretty hard headed.
