On a more serious note, my opinion on the new GSXR-600 and the new R6 for a beginner is they suck. If you have to have a 600 get an older 600 model. I'd recommend the F2-F3 because you can get them for cheap, there are plenty of replacement parts, and the replacement parts are cheap. You should also look at the SV, plenty of TQ for "riding twisties [and] straights".

Ride the bike, learn the bike, learn to ride, then worry about stretching and putting a stupid 240 on the rear.

WINNAR!

Pick up an old honda F2, its a lot faster than you think and you can have a LOT of fun on it. With a new bike its not if you're going to lay it down, its when. I will put money on it.
