I've been out of riding for about 15 years and I'm getting back into it right now too. I already bought my bike (a used BMW) and I'm loving every minute of it. Apparently though, according to GSXRWolf, I'm not a real motorcyclist either even though I take motorcycling seriously, practice the skills I learned in MSF, and plan on putting more than a few miles on my bike.
I've gotta say it's really disappointing to see that attitude. Maybe I'm wrong but aren't we all better off if we have as many people on motorcycles as possible, even part-time riders and those who want/need to wait to get their next bike? We should be encouraging everyone to ride in whatever way that suits them. The more people that ride the safer we all are, right?
Hardcore or not so much, people should be able to enjoy motorcycling however they want.
Anyway, to get off my soap box, seems like with MadCuban's Honda history a VFR might be good choice.
