We'll see. I know she had a great first day on the range. After talking to her, she wants to start off with a smaller bike and actually likes the 250 Honda Rebel she's been on, but we'll see what she wants to get.



Kirk,
For what it's worth, my TBA IS my starter bike and I have had no real issues with handling her. Yep, have made a few mistakes, stalled a bunch of times (before the Bubs) and taken a few turns a little too wide (especially riding up to Mt. Rainier).

If she still wants a small used beater bike, check out Bent Bike (Lynnwood and Auburn), they tend to have some bikes for that purpose, plus some of the gear is priced pretty fairly: http://www.bent-bike.com/

Best to go look at what they have in the lot. Their online list tends not to be current.
