Buying my 1st bike

[bonnich]

Hey,

I'm looking to purchase my 1st bike. I'd like a cruiser and am thinking of V-star 650 2000-current. I'm a fairly large guy (6'8' and just north of 300) I'm wondering if there may be a better option for me. Also some things i should watch out for buying a used bike.


Thanks!
Bon

I would actually suggest a bigger bike based on your size and desire for a crusier. something in the 800~1100cc range.

I'm 6'2" and about 210lb and I'm riding 1100 V-star.
Feels great and has lots of power.
