Dude! good choice!  I was told not to get sometning too small on the cc side because you'll outgrow it quickly; I ended up buying a M 800 ie; Im very happy ; lots to learn driving on urban roads, the bike and how it handles; wise advice I got from a number of people; take you time get to know the bike and enjoy the learning; I have been forever humbled by the skills that are needed, and as you learn you better appreciate the machine, beware of the and power of a high preformance bike.

never be in a hurry
beer and bikes dont mix
always be rested and alert
take a motorcycle skills course
be humble with & on your bike
enjoy riding; dont be a statistic

Thanks for the advice everyone, I have no intention of doing any wheelies anytime soon. Ill probably grandma this thing around for a while and get used to it.
