From this you naturally become smoother with every application and can hone in on the right body position and throttle application for the situation. This isn’t to say that someone couldn’t hop on a modern day 600 and excel at riding it. I just wouldn’t recommend it.

Are you looking to go new, or is used an option as well?

i am aiming for new. mainly b/c i don't know enough about bikes in that area to not get jipped. but i am not against 250s or 400s but i am more or less worried about highway speeds. but a 250 would make the misses happier
