i would suggest a 750 gixxer. Nice handling for a beginner and sweet top end power so that u dont get fed up of it soon and startt lookin for a faster bike.

a gsxr750 is waaay too much for a beginner. especially the newer ones. hell, a bone stock 600 can run a 10 second quarter. a 96 cbr F3 will run an 11 second quarter, BONE STOCK.

buy a POS bike for $500.

Drop it.

Sell it for $500 a year later

Buy something you like.

not break $2000 worth of plastic trying to learn on a 100hp + monster.
