Exclamation One of the new riders in my MSF class made her first bike a GSXR.

Her husband bought it for her and she only has 2 weekends on the saddle. I want to break it to her that the GSXR is NOT a very good starter bike, but how should I do it? I'm scared that, even after the basic riding course, that bike will still be 10x more than she should have at this point.

Suggestions?
