One thing that HD owners benefit from, and Triumph owners suffer from, is parts availability. My TBS is just five model years old, and I can't get support from...

Honda Nighthawk 700S Too Heavy? My friend, a 5-7 135 pound woman, bought a 84 Nighthawk 700S on my recommendation. I thought she should not get a 250...
Tell her to be more patient so that she will create better focus and have more control. Maybe depending on the length of the driveway, "paddle walk" the bike...
I would say *most* 250s fall into that arena, the rebel 250, etc. However, I know many riders that ride a Ninja 250 for MANY years and even race it without...
The Nighthawk is not a real heavy bike ( I think about 465lbs) The problem may not be the weight of the bike, it may be the seat height. I think the seat...
Might also consider a Suzuki Savage ( 650 cc thumper) - my 5"1" wife stepped up to that after learning on a Rebel. Also the Honda VLX may be a good option....
Guess I'll step up at this point. My wife started out on a Suzuki GS250...the little cruiser. She had that for all of a month before moving up the the S50...

Hey Ya,Steve!! I know from personal experience those Honda's from the 80's were very Top Heavy,owning an 82 Honda Magna once myself!! The very slightest lean...
Maybe not too heavy, but too topheavy for someone that size. I would think getting bored is a small price to pay for being safe, maybe the natural progression...
Help settle a bet!! I believe the last year of production for the Rocket 3(BSA) was 1972, a friend of mine swears the last year of production for the Rocket 3...

I'd rather she dropped the old Nighthawk than a new Bonnie. I think the Nighthawks are a tad top-heavy too?. When I ride down my somewhat steep driveway I...
Good point re top-heavy designs but don't necessarily agree all cruisers are hard to control. Do agree BIG ones are not good choices for beginners. The...

I own a '95 T-Bird, purchased new in August of 1995. There are quite a few differences in the '95 and later models. The most obvious is the square section...
