Honda Shadow Aero 750 or Spirit, VTX 1300. Suzuki Boulevard 50 series, Yamaha V-star 1100, or a Harley 883 Custom or Low. Or get her a Nightster!

Wife is learning on a 03 1200C and loves the bike. But I knew from the start it wasn't a good bike to learn on. She is doing great though. I would recommend a used Suzuki Savage 650 or Boulevard C50. Great bike to learn on. Either way if she takes to it she will be asking for a Softail within a year...

Let her try out different bikes and get her what's comfortable for Her.&nbsp\\; I learned on my 883C and I love it, but everyone is different.&nbsp\\; BEST of Luck to your wife.

Did you never hear the saying that a real bike is a harley,&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;
&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;
If that statment is true then , yes all other bikes are fakes,, It's just a joke, sorry you don't see my sense of humor
