My last ride was a 87 Honda Magna (yes super magna). My Dad had bought a Roadstar Midnight Silverado and I had the luxury of testing it out on occasion for a year or so. I loved the quality and look of the bike but I always had the feeling the bike was too big for me and I'm 6' 3" 205. Endless research left me with 3 options. V-Rod, Meanstreak and Warrior. I couldn't say this more vehemently. I Love this bike. I'm not brand partial but this bike does everything I ask of it and then some. It's light enough to play with, powerful enough to set you back, and comfortable enough to cruise. Yes, you'll still have to find and remedy little things that may not be right for you but what bike wouldn't. Test drive a warrior. Find some curves and play around a bit. I'm no canyon carver but, when I cruise with a bunch of Roadstars (such as my Dad's) the bikes are like night and day and even in my newby state I find myself slowing pace so he or my fellow riders don't have to push too much.
