Technically speaking, a big fat Harley can be registered as LAMS.
To stress the point already made, buy a shit heap bike that you can drop/lay down without crying too much about it. Believe me, it is a matter of when, and not if, it ever happens. Therefore, get a scuffed up faired bike that is common (so parts won't be a hassle) or go naked.
Some models I'd recommend a learner which aren't priced through the arse on the private resale markets are:
CBR (shop around, there are too many jokers around with stupid ideas of what their bike is worth, uleh)
FZR (lesser known, hence cheaper)
ZX2R (refer to CBR, but are much rarer)
Across (heavier, tiny fuel tank but very common. Also has a boot, so you can store your man bag in there when not in use)
Suzuki Bandits
Yamaha Zeal
Honda VT250 (spada)
Honda VTR250 (they hold value real well, so consider it an investment. Try and find a model with a tacho)
