Not likely to do much long distance stuff (she still loves back of the heritage and I don't mind)...but she will do some short around town touring...
XL883L!! Love mine! I'm 5'2 and it fit's me with room to spare. Rides great and is not overly powerful. Gets 60mpg and will do 100mph, 70mph on the interstate is no problem.
I put a Mustang Vintage Solo seat with finder bib on it along with HD engine guard and windshield. I'll post a new pic of it for you in a few min.
