Re: Wifey got motorcycle license... now what bike?
As a former motorcycle instructor please do not get a Sportster for a beginning rider. My personal opinion, and I've ridden most of the H.D. models is the Sportster is a top heavy, poorly balanced pig of a bike. I find you need a lot of upper body strength to ride them and I've fought the idea that they are a ladies bike for years. Please check out the Softail Deluxe, it is a very user friendly machine with a low centre of gravity, low seat height, narrower seat, and wide handle bars. Easiest bike to ride I've ever got on. I would be riding one but I'm addicted to the cruise and tunes on my Ultra. The Softail Deluxe is being ridden by more women every year and I ask everyone I can how they like it, all of them love it and most are ex-sporster riders.
