Welcome to the mad house. Enjoy your time with your son and may you have many happy rides together.
The other half has suggested a FXR150 for your lad, and for you, well do you exactly mean by cruiser?

Kawasaki Vulcan is a good choice for a cruiser big, fun and lots less dollars than other cruisers

so if any one recommendations for a cruiser, I am all ears.
Welcome to KB
I can highly recommend the Suzuki Intruder or Boulevard range, Yamaha XVS range and the Kwaka VN series - some lovely cruisers out there.
Of course then theres your Harleys as well but you pay for the name - would have one myself if I was a bit richer :)
