I too find the CB easy to maneuver at low speeds. I'm 5' 6" and like the CB for it's low seat and low center of gravity. Though not a light weight, the CB feels light and with it's tight wheel base, handles low speed turns as easily as a bicycle. I think the various cruiser bikes the worst for beginners. Their longer wheel bases make low speed steering uneasy for newbies who often start with a cruiser because the very low seat height makes for a secure feeling when "seat testing" in the dealer's showroom.
Hard to beat a dirt bike for the first time rider. You learn a lot about two wheeled riding dynamics, all the while taking your spills on the dirt instead of the unforgiving pavement.
