Which motorcycle is the best starter to get for a small guy?

So i've asked this question before but now I'm back with more information. I'm starting to get into motorcycles and I plan on getting one soon. The only problem is, i don't which one to get. I'm not a big dude at all (weighing in at 125bls and 5'7") so I don't want to get anything that I wont be able to ride. I know there are alot of types of motorcycles out there such as cruisers, sport bikes, off-road bikes, ect., but I mainly just need a bike that will be able to get me around my town, and on the highway (70mph) to go see family. Mainly looking a sport bike or a cruiser to get, but any will do. My main question is, any ideas on what to get for a starter for someone shorter like myself? Let me know if you need anymore information because I want to know as much as possible on what would be a good starter. One option I was thinking of was the Honda Grom, but the only problem that I have with it is the speed isnt the fastest. Let me know if anybody has any options for me. Thanks!

SIDE NOTE: I'm looking for something affordable, maybe anything about $3000 or less. Thanks again!
