I got my license in May of 2006(I'm 5'1' 110lbs)I was supposed to ride my husband's '05 883L, but had touble keeping it upright LOL>I Bought a Honda Rebel 250 and proceeded to put 3000 miles on it between May '06 and August '07.Then I started on the Sporty again. I sold the Rebel thi past month and am now on the Sporty. Let your wife cut her teeth on something SHE can handle (and if need be, pick up when it falls)Don't know if the Sporty will be my final bike, I'm still looking, but I never would have been comfortable on it if I hadn't had that time on the Rebel.
