Default Help with 06 S50 choice

After riding on the back ov my VRod all summer, my DW informed me she wants her own bike! I want to find the best bike that fits her small frame (5'4" - #120). She sat on an S50 at our local dealer and it seems to fit but maybe a little to heavy? I think she could quickly grow into it as her skills improve but concerned with safety.

Questions:
Is this a good bike to begin on?
Is it easy to handle? (my VRod is bad at crawl speeds)
Do they hold up well?

This would be our first Suzzi - Are they built well?
Have any of you have good or bad incedents?

thanks in advance, LJ
