Don't have a crazy amount of riding experience (10 or so years here) but I can chime in on the daily commuting on a sport bike. I have had my 2012 Yamaha R6 since new and can tell you that if you want to daily this, don't lol. The riding position is. not. ergonomic. Unless you're on a track of course then it's amazing. The 300cc bikes have a way better riding position and listen to everyone when they say invest in quality gear. I've personally cut back on riding as I am getting utterly annoyed with ppl not paying attention while driving. Whatever you decide, enjoy it and congrats on the new job
