What is the best bike for us "short" riders?

Question:
I'm 5'2" 110lbs. New rider..

Answers:

Isn't it time to put Motorcycle Racing back in the Sports section?

I'm 5'0" 95lbs and I can ride a 2006 Honda CBR600F4i which is about 375lbs dry [without fluids], however, my first bike will be a Kawasaki Ninja500R... I know I can ride the CBR, but the Ninja fits me a little better size wise, even though its about 10lbs heavier. The best thing for you to do is go to some place that sells bikes and just sit on a bunch of them and see what works best for you. Make sure you can easily pick it up, roll it back and forth, and that you can touch the ground easily. If it feels a little too heavy, it probably is. But as I said, I highly suggest the Ninja if you have never ridden before. They are also decently priced.

Concerning a XR200, Will a 1983 engine fit on a 1987 bike? Or is it worth rebuilding my engine?

As a new rider, you are far better off starting out with a used bike, like a honda Rebel 400, wich is used by many motorcycle safety courses for training riders, due to it's ridability, low profile, and good balance. Calling your local chapter of the Am. motorcycle Safety Institute will get you in touch with local riders in your area who can offer you advice on an individual basis, free of charge.

Are py90s any good?

Here in PA they offer free motorcycle safety course and provide motorcycles for the course, They are 250's and most of them are Honda Shadows. These are good training cycles and are not very expensive. However, if this will be your first bike buy used and pay cash, get the experience of riding before moving up to bigger and more expensive bikes. I have had friends who bought big bikes like Goldwings and rode only a few times then selling them at a loss because they weren't ready for a big bike. Nothing wrong with starting small and working up to bigger later on. In fact the smaller bike will normally sell quicker when you are ready to move up, then use the money for your next bike.
