during my training we rode the CBF, it was actually quiet easy to ride and move around in once you get the hang of it. keep in mind i had never ridden in my life so as a learner it was quiet good. take off was easy and breaking was forgiving. the stance was comfortable, good enough for long journeys. only thing i didnt like was the naked bike look but if that doesnt affect you , i say go for that.

ps. i just got a bike, i cant seem to get the hang of U turns...fark. hints anyone?? i cant seem to be able to turn the bike enough..scare it will tip over lol am i goin too slow?
