Bikes like the zx6r and gsxr aren't normally recomended for beginners and i want to know why. Also would someone switching from a ninja 650r to a zx6r notice a big difference in power speed and handling?

Some people consider them bad because some of them go too fast and are really heavy. I just think you should learn on another type of motorcycle, then when u have the basics down, get a fast bike and go 200mph

EVERYTHING. Too expensive in cost, maintainance, repairs, insurance, gas etc... When you crash it (which you will) YOU WILL CRY. Honestly sport bikes are hard for begginers period because they are high off the ground and heavy, you'd be best served buying a used honda rebel for $1000, riding it for 6 months and upgrading, I know they're kinda lame but there's a reason a lot of MSF classes use them, they are SUPER lightweight, comfy, and also easy to ride and maintain, then test ride different bikes and get what feels best to you.
