Try the Honda Rebel
It's about the most forgiving bike I've ever come across, though I'm not an expert. |
If we were talking about a Fat Boy or something else that's ludicrously huge, I'd see your point. Even a 750cc Shadow really isn't all that much bike, though.
A Honda Rebel is a toy. Buell's are for people like my mother (5'2", 115 lbs). A decent sized cruiser that's stable and easy to handle is, in my opinion, the happy medium. Like Crompsin, however, I'm more or less clueless about crotch rockets.
