Thanks for the welcome here. Just reading the posts on what makes a biker, and the post on stereotypes. When my husband first said he was getting another bike, I said no. Well, we got the Virago 750 and I started riding behind him, and couldn't figure out why I said no. When he went to the Vulcan 800, I tried the Virago and wouldn't get off of it. So I went to the Vulcan and love it. I have put more miles on a bike this summer than I have my car in 2 years. Living in south central Kentucky, there are miles of country roads to explore (yep, getting my experience of curvy roads). I thank all of our male friends that were patient enough to ride with me at slow speeds until I got the hang of riding. I also feel for them now with the V Twin burning them up in 100 degrees temperatures, enduring the slow speeds. As for the question of picking the bike up, I'm with the one's who posted, that would be the least of the worries if my bike goes down. Being as tall as I am, I wanted a bike that was comfortable and my legs would stretch out on the highway pegs. Anytime we go to rally's or rides, I am always checking out everyone else's bikes. They all look great. Everyone asks me how do I hold the bike up, being a lightweight female. I tell them the bike holds me up. Kentucky has a no helmet law, but I wear one. My choice. Keeping the dirty side down and the shiny side up and constantly watching the other drivers and side roads for people who ignore stop signs and bikes.
