The Suzuki S50/ Intruder 800 is a good choice for shorter riders, as it is very narrow and thus easy to reach the ground. Plenty of power, good handling, and bulletproof.

The Harley Sportster comes in a 'low' version for shorter people in both 883 and 1200 flavors. Not as much power as the S50 (even with the 1200), but it IS a Harley.

The Honda VLX is a good choice also, comfortable and low to the ground. But it is the smallest motor of the three, so you may outgrow it.

Those are my top three bikes for 'shorter' people.
