Before taking the MSF course I had looked at HDs and then spotted the Speedmaster.
After passing the MSF course again sat on many of the Triumphs and HDs. I could have had any bike I wanted but went with the Speedmaster and have never regretted it. It is a bike very accomodating of a new rider.
Like Scott, I started out very slow and worked my way up to more challenging roads as my skills and confidence progressed.
It could work out for your friend, but at the very least he may make his riding experience more difficult with a heavy bike. If you can't change his decision, try to be supportive and help him learn the right way to ride.
Good luck!
