I don't see why you shouldn't get on fine with a Bonneville. The seat height is relatively low when compared to a lot of modern bikes (apart from Harley style cruisers) and it's easy to ride. I'm only a couple of inches taller than you but only have a 29" inside leg and can put my feet reasonably flat on the ground.

As a masculine owner of a white and tangerine T100 I'll overlook your statement regarding it being "a total girls bike" as you're new here but I suggest you don't repeat it! :razz:

The white/tangerine colour scheme was introduced for the 2005 model year which means the earliest ones available will have been released in September 2004. This colour scheme is carried over for the 2006 model year. The black and white has been dropped for 2006. In addition to the white/tangerine, black with a red flash and silver coach stripe is available for 2006 (saw a couple at the factory today - nicer than the old black/white in my opinion but I'll stick with what I've got already). There is also a yellow/gold version for 2006 - I've only seen it in photos so far but in my opinion it looks horrible.

Go and try one - you'll love it.

Paul.
