then 6 months later she was like "Im'ma take your race bike ok, m'kay"?
and now she rides this...
Moral of the story?
1) Women that ride are hot
2) Women that ride are keepers =)
3) There is probably some other moral here, but I got stuck on those two
My first was a brand new Ninja 500. I dropped it in the gravel before I even left the lot that day. Devastated? no, but my pride hurt a bit. I was just happy to have my very own motorcycle to really give a shit. I ended up low-siding it later that summer and sold it after I got a ZX10. I forgot to put down the kick-stand on the ZX10 and had a light let-down when I was rearranging my vehicles in the parking lot.
Moral of the story: New, used, it'll get dropped either way. Get some sliders on it right away, get her out there, and have fun!
EDIT: Just saw how old the OP was. Meh, my position stands!
I started small. I am a firm believer in starting small for everyone. But they are grown adults they can make their own decisions. I'd say the Ninja 300 or Z125. Nothing wrong with starting small and working your way up. I got my ninja 300 SE (2013) for 4000 put 2k on it and then sold it for 3800 They sell almost for what you paid for them which is good for upgrading time. It's always better to be safe then sorry. Especially when it comes to motorcycles. It could be the difference between being married and widowed...
for any new guys in a similar situation with their girlfriends/wives (old thread obviously) i'd say go with a used ninja 300 (if you can get one with abs that is a plus)
fuel injected, slipper clutch
if you love your gf/wife get her something something with 300cc so she can build good riding habits without being afraid of the power..if you don't...well then get her an H2 lol

you definitely buy a bike that should be use as her practice buddy new bike should be abused and be broken its a huge waste of cash LOL kidding you have to support her anyway
CBR25OR ABS is the best for her
