My suggestion is to sign up immediately for Motorcycle Safety Foundation's basic riding course in your area (there will be one somewhere). It's pretty fun, and will teach you all the basic skills you need to ride (and get a license). It takes a weekend to complete, and costs about $150, but it's well worth it. You'll be a much more confident rider.
What type of motorcycle are you most interested in? A sport bike, or more of a cruiser?
A lot depends also on how tall you are. Many ladies with short legs have trouble balancing a heavier bike if the seat height is tall. This may be a big factor in determining how much bike or how big of an engine you can easily handle.
