sensible answer is start small and build up the cc as your confidence grows. I went staight on a k6 1000 after passing my test, i'm 35 though and to start with had a mature attitude and respected the bike. Get whatever you want but if you choose the thou then take it very slowly indeed and you'll be fine.....never get on a 1000 with a point to prove, you'll be toast within an hour;)

...there is a good article out there on WSB that deals with very high hp bikes. In a nutshell the feeling is that without very sophisticated and expensive traction control, even 200hp is too much. IIRC at Brands Hatch the BSB GSX-R 1000 is only at full throttle 17% of the lap. The rest is all part throttle. That bike puts ~190hp to the wheel. True the 600's can't touch 1000's in sheer acceleration, but there is more to consider on a race track. Go to a track day w/ your bike to see what I mean.

There is no point in trying to tell ppl to buy a smaller bike when they are learning, If their mind is made up then let them buy the thou, When they crash and burn then they'll understand what everyone was telling them. Or they'll just end up being one of those heros who are amazingly fast in a straight line but then piss off everyone else who gets stuck behind them in corners becuase they have no clue how to hammer through a corner without kissing the back tire when it loops out on them.

title of the song?

start from a small bike dont add SHIT to you man... its the same from chance of a 600 to a 1000 u need to re-learn anytng u know.
-
forget it - get something more tame. Aim for a 500-750cc bike. Kawa er6f / er6n, kawa z750, honda hornet, suzuki gladius or sv650 etc.
Not a good idea to learn on a bike that'll do 178 mph and 0-60 in about 2.9 seconds. Also, insurance will kill ya, if you can get it.

u would kill urself ;)

Are you a trackday rider? If not, don't buy this bike, it's totally useless for the road no purpose, it's a pure trackbike.
