This question gets asked about once a week. Sportbikes are not for inexperienced riders. For a begginer you should start out on a Cruiser, Standard, or Dual Sport. If you check insurance costs with progressive.com you will find out that full coverage on a sportbike is far more than the three types listed. The Cruiser style of bike is involved in the least amount of accidents. The riding position puts your head up where you can see around you better. The engines are made to produce strong low end power making clutch work easier. The steering geometry, where the front fork angles out more, creates a more stable ride. Less likely to wander across the lane, and much less likely to develop high speed wobble. Sportbikes are known for high speed wobble. A good first Cruiser would be the suzuki Boulivard S40. It is a single cylinder 652cc and can be bought new for less than $5000. Keep in mind that in 2008 the number one cause of death on a motorcycle was from a vehicle turning left in front of the motorcycle. In 2009, the number one cause of death was from single sportbike accidents where the rider of the sportbike had less than a year of experience. The 600cc sportbikes typically have very little low end power and jump dramatically in power as the rpms pass 4000. This makes working the clutch tricky. Combine that with the sharp fork angle and it gets real easy to make sharp turns. Even if you don't intend to.
