Congratulations to you both, It's a fine thing to share something you love with someone you love. You're fortunate folk.

Never heard of that make. I disagree with the small first bike theory. Everyone I know that has done that was tired of it in less than a season and was wishing they hadn't spent the money on it and just bought what they wanted to start with. Wendys first bike was,and is, her America. As long as you find a bike that fits you and drive responsibly there is no reason not to get the bike you want. Take the safety course first so you can drop their bike a few times instead of your nice new one though.
A 250cc twin?! It must have 50 cent pieces for pistons!
Pure hog wash Dog, but I didn't expect much different. There's little wrong in buying what fits - whether it be size or wallet, or just want. There is equally no wrong in getting something one is comfortable with. There is little loss should one find the need to up-size, and probably vastly more to lose if one were to need to downsize. Thankfully, everyone doesn't suffer from some Freudian penisenvy/sizematters syndrom.
As a side thought, the time when we fatassed Americans with size issues will be looking diligently for smaller & lighter in most forms of transportation.
And finally, on the lighter side, I hear those little puppies are made in Thailand and assembled in England in a parallel universe. The Anti-Triumph...
