(03-18-2018, 09:22 PM)cookiemech_imp Wrote: I would just lend my voice to pdedse regarding a "first bike" choice. Yes, with 39 years and 400K plus miles, the CB1100 was the easiest new bike I think I've ever ridden. But if I could somehow see back to 1979 and imagine getting onto that 540 or 560 (haven't actually weighed mine) pound beast, I would have been pretty intimidated. Really easy to ride, but heavy for a novice.

My vote goes to the CB500F. Enough power for the freeway and reasonable weight. And it's a Honda.

Plus 1 !
