If you want more power and height & weight are issues, consider a Triumph Bonneville. I just picked up an '09 SE and it handles as easily as my GZ (much better, actually), and has plenty of power. The seat is only a liitle higher than that of the GZ (I don't recall the exact height at the moment), and weighs 480 lb. dry.

It's reported to be very new rider and/or vertically challenged person friendly, and, as I said, handles like a dream. You'll want the SE with the 17 inch mag wheels, though, not the T100 with the 19 inch spoke jobs. Those smaller mags are what help make the SE handle so well, especially for the wee ones amongst us.
