What is a good bike for a girl (40)?

Are you a new rider? Are you “inseam challenged” (short?) I had a Honda Rebel when I started 4 years ago – loved it. 18mos later I moved up to a Honda Shadow VLX600- loved it too… and last fall I got a Honda Shadow Ace 750 and in addition I got a Ducati Monster 695(with a lowering kit). I am 53 and I am 5’3″. I’m not a “hotdog” rider, but I love going out with my husband or my women’s club and I love riding alone too. I have the two bikes because there are times when I like the cruiser for easier/relaxed and longer trips and my sporty for little day trips into the mountains or around town. But whatever you get, make sure that it feels right and comfortable from the get-go.

depending on what type of girl you are depends on what bike to get

do you want a fun ride but not to seriouos just out kinda havin fun

or do you want to feel like a queen and speed

well the 250 ninja by kawasaki is good for a calm ride but still has a little power. its a good ride for learners or smaller people who cant handle a heavy bike. its all good as bikes go just a little to small for me

but if you want to fly
get a gixer 600. a suzuki gsxr600 has just enough power to do anything you need plus tons of more power for when u just wanna open her up. howerver this bike is a little more dangerous for unexperiance riders. it has a ton of torque wich can flip it if you dont kno how to ride it correctly. but if you ever want to go to a track, your be assured a fast time

ha ha

so basically its w/e you want

but those would be my piks

I’m a female rider as well. I’m a big fan of the Honda cruiser line. Rebels are awfully small and you’ll outgrow it fast. My first bike was a 1983 Honda Shadow VT750C (which I bought in 2003). It just went caputz so I just bought a 2007 Honda Shadow Spirit VT750DC. The Shadows are excellent bikes and if you are a new rider the 750 size is easy to use as a beginner and you may never outgrow it (I haven’t).
