This is a great bike for a woman who is starting out running a bike. It is very forgiving and very easy to ride. I have never ridden a bike before and I picked this bike because I was told it was a forgiving bike and they were right. I can ride the bike with ease. I have a hard time touching the ground but that doesn't matter. It is light and easy to handle. It rides great but has a little vibration. After riding it for 6 hours straight my hands were a little numb and my butt was a little sore. I do not mind.
The looks that I get when I am riding is kind of cool. The gas mileage is awesome. I average about 82 miles to the tank. The look and sound of the bike is just awesome. It is a very good bike for a woman just starting out. It hugs the corners. I have had it up to 65 mph and it feels like you are floating. I can't wait 'till I can get it up to 75 mph and over. The shifting is smooth and forgiving and the braking is good. I couldn't have picked a better bike for me. I will never get bored with this bike. People said that it doesn't have a lot of grunt compared to a lot of bikes out there. But this bike has grunt. It gets up and goes when you want it too. It has power and speed. This bike is a blast to ride. I am very happy with the choice that I have made. I think that anyone who gets this bike will be just as happy as I am with it.
