Sarcastic remark goes here
I'm assuming it was a cruiser, those things are the most dangerous.
I remember taking my learner's class on 600's back in the 80's. One lady was on a cruiser like v-star 650 (but much older model), she ended up failing the class because it wasn't nimble enough to turn at low speed (or she didn't have good sense of balance). Those things are hard to turn (big turn radius), low ground clearance (pegs scrape the road), and slow to accelerate & brake (heavy for the sized brakes). Riding those Harley's like driving a semi-truck (I'd assume), slow and easy...
I had a Shadow 750 when I was in my upper teens, early 20's. I rode it everywhere, even dirtbike trails. Drunk or sober, I could throw that thing into a curve or corner just as well as the guys on the crotch rocket guys who had more bike than they knew what to do with. In fact many of those guys couldn't even keep up with me unless I was on a straight stretch of road.
Nothing's as maneuverable as the little 1973 Honda CB125 I had before it though. (Actually I still have it but it doesn't run & I don't know what happened to the front wheel.) THAT thing was like riding a bicycle.
