Im 46 , 5'10 /195 lbs and i got my ES 6 months ago. It is my first roadbike. I have been riding dirt with my crf250x for about a couple of years. I did the basic MSF course a year before I got the S10.
The S10 is heavy! But once rolling it's very light on its feet. I can safely splitlane with confidence on the freeways of LA.
On dirt, its a totally different story. I took it for a ride in Johnson Valley (with stock tires) and i got terrified. I gues i need more saddle time in the dirt to (and better tires) to get a better feel of the bike.
All im saying is, MSF definitely a must. From there you can decide which bike to get based on confidence and skill level.
I chose the S10 as a first roadbike. And 600 miles after, I took her on a 4000 mile roadtrip all the way to Oklahoma / Texas and back. It was such a liberating experience and i'm glad I made the right purchase.
