Is a Honda 750 too big for a girl?

I'm 23, 5'3" and 140lbs. I tried riding my Dad's 750 to learn on. He had a lot of confidence in me. I did really well for a little while but when I came to a nice slow stop I had a little too much weight to my right side and I couldn't hold it back up so I slowly let it fall. No damage at all to the bike but my ego was shot and I lost to confidence to try again that day. I'm worried that a 750 is too big for me but I was wondering what others, with experience, thought.
 
If you can sit at a stop and keep both feet flat on the pavement, you are fine.

It has less to do with the size of the engine as the seat height, there are much larger bikes with very low seat hieght that you would do quite well on.
