That's kind of an oxymoron.
There is no good liter bike as a starter.
I say he should get a Virago 750 or similar. They steer a lot easier than a sportbike as people freak out when getting on a sport bike as you REALLY need to be able to counter steer without thinking about it - if you have to tell yourself to counter steer, you're gonna hit the guard rail, hit an oncoming car head on, or go off the road!
Cruisers have a more natural feeling (a la pushbike) so counter steering them for sharper turns comes easier.
LOL @ video! What a fuggen squid!
Nice high-side. Lucky he was going slow. The usual result of a high side is a broken collar-bone - if you're lucky!
