My mom is finally allowing me to get a bike after years of convincing and i'm looking for a good bike to get on, after taking the MSF class of course. I'm almost 19, a little over 5'9" and weigh 145lbs.
I've done much research and it's hard to find places to compare specific bikes, but what i've found i like the most so far is the Ninja 250r-650r or the Yamaha R6 (i've been told this is too fast for a beginner) but i've ridden dirtbikes for many years and i'm pretty comfortable on most bikes i've sat on. I'm looking for something with some good get up and go and I've heard mostly two opposite things about the 250r in that category, so should i look into the 650r more? I'm taking all thoughts.
Thanks!
 
I dont know much about bikes but I've ridden a CBR 600RR and that is a sweet bike. It is very powerful, but if can keep from over reving it and flipping it then you will fall in love with the bike.
