I know this question has been asked before, but I want to ask it again and include my background and what I want in a cycle.
I'm 23. When I was around 10, my dad taught me to ride a classic Honda Sport 50cc (road bike - rode it around the neighborhood). It had a 4 speed transmission, clutch, and a fairly normal riding posture/configuration. When I was around 16 or so, I rode around my Dad's Suzuki 650 Savage a little bit (not much). I was also into BMX bicycle racing at the time. The reason I mention bicycles is to say that I'm not a complete klutz on two wheels.
I still don't have my endorsement. I want to take an MSF course before I start riding for real. Sportsters are my dream bike, although I haven't ridden one myself. I'm afraid it might be too big or too top heavy for my first bike. Do you think I might be okay? I'm afraid if I buy a Honda Rebel or something I'll reget it after 2 weeks and think I would have been fine getting my HD Sportster dream bike to begin with.
