there are a lot of posts on here in the ladies forum about height / size. and there are alot of different opinions!!!!!!

first - are you a rider or driver right now with your cousins?? if your a driver, what kind of bike?? if you have just been riding, my recommendation is to start off small- and definately take the a motorcycle safety course.

when it comes down to it, your size probably isnt all that much of a factor. it is just experience on a cycle.

keep us updated!!!

DThompson on here has been showing me how to ride. It's not hard at all! Ask one of them if they can maybe show you a little bit in an abandoned parking lot or something. You might just amaze yourself!

I started small on a 250 and worked my way up. You'll get used to it...
