Hello everyone. My father has been riding his Honda Shadow 1100 for about a year now, and has recently talked me into buying a bike so he could have a riding partner. The problem is I am torn between the cruiser and sport bike body styles. My dad thinks I should get a cruiser style bike, in particular a 2004 Honda Shadow Aero 750cc that we have found a good deal on. I, however, feel as though a sport bike would better suit my needs. Correct me if I am wrong, but I feel as though the whole body is the center of balance on a bike, rather than just the spine and buttocks that is the center of balance on a cruiser. I want a bike I have full control over, not just something I will lean back and enjoy the wind on my face for. I may be over analyzing it, like I do with everything. Or I may just know what I want. Someone help me clear the fog in my brain please :(

Thanks!!
