<OT> "donnie wants me to get a harley but i am not strong enuf to pick it up...suzuki weighs 350 lbs..."

Do you want to lift a bike, or ride one? I've owned "all kinds" of bikes over the last 30 years...and how well you can "pick it up" shouldn't be much of a consideration. Virtually nobody that rides a large bike can lift it...me included. My current ride is a 1999 Harley Road King. 740 lbs. dry. Before this, I rode a Honda Gold Wing for 16 years. 720 lbs. dry. Never had any reason to "lift" it. What the size and weight do give you is stability and security. A 350 lb. bike is going to get blown all over the road by every vehicle that comes near it...especially trucks.

If you are not a real big person...I recommend a Harley Sportster. Well built, powerful, great resale when you're ready for more, and you'll be riding a true American legend...not a Jap knock-off.
