When I got back into riding I went straight to the EG because I didn't want to wish I had gotten what I really wanted. Seems to me a Sportster is a frame with a big motor. Those things must be quik. Why would that be a starter bike? Heavy bikes are probably harder to manuver a low speeds.

Welcome to the forums, from the beautiful mountains of North Georgia.

Yeah, try a sportster, to start, but remember, they're TALL. A low rider, etc., might fit you better. Also, a 833 Sportster Hugger is lower..............
