I'd recommend a used bike first... maybe get a used 500, ride it for a year or so, and if you still like it, pick up a 600 or 750 when the time is right...
Glad to hear you are taking the beginner safety course, smart move.

GOOD ADVICE....I have riden for 32 years, even been an instructor in my later years of riding and the fact that you are already thinking about taking a training course, THAT is the right thing to do, not to mention, most insurance companies will give you a discount if you do.
