I am a lady rider, 5'7" and 150 lbs. I just traded in my 2014 Iron 883 for the 2017 Street 750 and am very, very happy with the trade. I only put 445 miles on my Iron since purchased new November 2014. I was never really comfortable with it and it felt very top heavy and hard for me to maneuver. The Street fits me perfectly and it is much easier to handle. Now, if the weather cooperates, I'm on it. I did add a windshield, sissy bar and luggage rack. For me, the windshield is an absolute must to keep road debris from hitting me while riding.

 

yeah i need to add a windshield..
I've put nearly 3k on since the end of january, it handles perfectly fine on twisties and freeway alike ( 90% of my riding is done on freeways now)

 

She will love it! Low Center of G, plenty of gas, yeah you can skate the bike backward when you need to, easy to park in a small space, flick it around in a lot or in the twistys...man I got way more to say about the Street if you need it. I love my 500.

God Bless!

 

Ain't it great when ya can pull a fast one on 'em?

Glad she's enjoying the bike, and you get to enjoy having your partner out with you again...
