Hey OP think she’d want a 99 zx9r??
Re: WANTED: Bike For 1st Timer
RJ's just listed a Rebel 500.
I have a cousin sitting on an 06? Triumph Bonneville he dropped and can't seem to get started. It'd be a good little project if he'd let it go, but I'm not sure if he's quite there yet. I know his dad wants it out of the garage.

If OP passes on the Bonnie, I would like info :)

I would like some pics. I already regret selling my 250 3 days ago.

You should get an MT03 instead!
Wait, wrong thread?
Re: WANTED: Bike For 1st Timer
Lol. I never could find one in the end. Plus all the fees they would have tacked on left a bad taste in my mouth. What started as a $4000 bike ends up being $6000, no thank you.

Re: WANTED: Bike For 1st Timer
How about a Honda 919? Considering selling mine, as something else has caught my eye
Re: WANTED: Bike For 1st Timer
Friend of mine is selling an 04 shadow 750. Can send you the deets if it meets "close enough" criteria.

Awesome bikes. Probably the best I've ever owned.

MT03 seems to be the only 300 class that is a twin? But the Honda has a countershaft. Suzuki doesn’t seem to have an entry.
My daughter is 5’7 so these may be good choices for her.

Re: WANTED: Bike For 1st Timer
My wife has a 2022 Honda Rebel 500 SE ABS, mint condition, if I had to guess under 2k miles. Has a luggage rack on the rear fender with one of those high sissy bars for bags, a Viking swingarm bag, and crash bars. A couple more rides on the Iron 883 to know for sure she’s ready to move on and I think she’ll be looking to part with it.
