I want to learn about sports bikes in general and I would like some direction of how I can go about that. What type of bike would be good for a begginer.

    Your state’s department of motor vehicles should offer a motorcycle safety class. I believe that they provide the bike for you. Also, many colleges offer classes similar to this.

    Take the motorcycle safety course offered by the state. It will teach you things that some never learn after years of riding. Learn to ride a dirt bike too first, it helps a lot. Dirt is a lot better to fall on than pavement. When you fall on a sport bike there are cars around you, repairs are costly, and people will run you over. A 600 is a lot of power to an inexperienced rider. I don’t know about that as a first bike. People drive like azzholes, and I have known many that have been severely injured or died due to rider inexperience, and/or automobile carelessness.

    Start off on a Bicycle, then a Moped, then maybe a Dirt Bike, and then eventually the Rice Rocket.

    First, I think it is too dangerous to begin with a 600 CBR. There is too much acceleration on this bike and the insurance will be too expensive if you are a young person.
    Try a Suzuki 650 SV or a Honda 500 CB to learn the basics. They are easier to handle and have fun.

    Don’t forget your helmet!

    Get a Suzuki SV650 do a track day and then smoke all your friends on your inferior bike.

    You will learn WAY more about riding a motorcycle by doing one track day.
