Used Harley prices are crazy low right now. Best thing to do is go to a dealer and sit on a variety of models. There is a wide variety of seat heights and handlebar positions. Just have to keep trying them out till you find what feels right for you.
I wouldn't consider a V-rod based model as a good first bike. Something smaller and lighter to learn on would work much better. Plus you'll probably need to take a skills test for the motorcycle endorsement, not easy on a big heavy bike. Work your way up, maybe learn on a Sportser then a Dyna or Softail. Or something like a Suzuki SV 650 or Honda Nighthawk type. Those mid size import bikes are very easy to learn on.
