[QUOTE="TruWrecks, post: 207923, member: 4546"] When I came back to riding, after taking a few years off, I bought a Kawasaki Z7-S. It's a 750cc version of the FZ6. I rode it for about a year to "re-tune" my riding skills. I'm really glad I did it. It made it easier when I made the move to a bigger bike. I had less work to do while learning to handle the bigger bike. As far as fit, I have a 32" inseam also. The FJR feels great with the seat in the low position. I can stand flat footed with my boots on. The bike handles extremely predictable, and nimble. Get what you feel comfortable on, but don't forget, it's been a while since you were on a bike so don't rush into it too fast. Get your mind back in the riding mode before you try a bigger bike. You'll thank yourself for it. Doug [/QUOTE]
