Thanks for the advise.
I was in Guatemala for one week in Feb (no motorcycle). Antigua is beautiful but everyone seemed to speak English. At first I was considering going to Quetzaltenango and riding around the Lake Atitlan area. However, this is my first trip by motorcycle and I am going alone on limited time. BTW, I am more afraid of mechanical problems than robbery etc, because I really have no mechanical skills (not many garages here in Brooklyn). Anyway, I thought riding down to Tampa and taking the Yucatan Ferry to San Cris via Cancun would be a good first trip for a couple of weeks.
Lonely Planet says good things about the town and the Spanish school, although I did notice that they only provide lessons for 3 hrs/day instead of the standard 5 in Guatemala.
Where would you cross the border is you wanted to ride into Guatemala after taking the Yucatan Ferry?
