Talking New Rider

Hi, I'm an old fashioned gal and feel my place is on the back of my husband's bike. We bought it back in April it's a Honda VTX1800N. It is huge. Since then he has been hounding me to get one telling me how much fun it's been. Well I bought one today, the 2006 VStar Classic 650. Let me tell you, perfect for those short in statue and inseam. I have a 28" inseam and fit perfect on it. It is a dream, let me tell you. Great price too so if I destroy it (knock on wood) I am not out much.

Cool stuff. Pictures of bike?
The 650's are nice because they're not overwhelming like the bigger bikes. My buddy wants to get a cruiser, but he's 6'2" so the 650 is a little too small for him.

Welcome to the forum. (We NEED a different wave besides this one)
