    Newbie - any advice for a short female rider?

    I am 5'2" as well. I have just got used to the fact that I can't touch the ground with my bike. But that does not leave any room for error. If you do not want to lower the bike try Daytona Lady Star boots. They will give you up to 2" and may allow you to touch the ground with both feet...

    Which bike and what gear?

    Can't comment on bike choice...you need to find what feels comfortable to you. Go to dealers and sit on the bike.
