Suzuki s50 a good starter bike for me. Im planning on taking the msf course and buying a junk bike.?

I was originally thinking the s40 because its lighter but then its really to small for me people have been saying. Im 6 1 290 and no i dont want a harley or a crotch rocket so please non of those comments. I want a cruiser thats fairly light weight and easy for a begginnner to handle.

The S50 is about right for your size but the S40 would work too.

As a former MSF instructor, I can say with confidence (not bravado) you don't need anything bigger despite what you see posted on YA. In the future, if you change your mind, buy something with more power and since you are buying a used bike, you won't lose much on its resale.

I agree that the S40 is a great starter bike.

Many riders choose to upgrade after a year or two of riding their starter bike. If you fall in love with your S40 or the S40 is just too practical to give up, this won't be a problem.

But if you see yourself upgrading, the S50 will be cost effective. It is heavier and stronger than the S40 but the seat is low and you can easily stand it with both feet flat on the ground.
