Probably. I'm 55 and ride a 500# scooter. I'm also married to a banjo player and we aren't rolling in dough.
I've been looking at shifty things lately, and I'd really like to get a Connie. My problem, or one of them, is I'm short, with a 30" inseam. I've sat on a couple and can touch the ground with the balls of my feet. I was thinking I could lower the seat, and buy boots with a higher heel. I've gone out to the COG forum to check on how other inseam challenged riders cope. I also plan on taking the MSF (again) on a shifty thing this time.
Am I getting in over my head? I don't like the riding position of sport bikes. I don't really want to get a cruiser, but I've been looking at them, too.
Helpful comments and suggestions are greatly appreciated.
