you could always try stilts!!!!
Just passed his test, you with short legs, Can I recommend a Yamaha Thundercat? You should get a decent bike for £2K. They suit short and large alike, they are a superb 1st big bike. Good torquey engine, superb brakes, stunning handling, quick enough ( will do 150 if you really want) but is equally easy round town.. I had one and its a bike I'd go back to if my back would take it(I broke it in an accident 4 years ago)

I'd seriously try one for size if I was you.
