I have to disagree on the first bike choice. I think 250 Ninja or a 500 suzuki or ninja make the best first choices. Very cheap insurance and while still quick not oh my god fast. I can do 115 on my little 250 ninjette. Also the bikes them selves are cheap. I paid 2500 for my 2001 ninja and even with 4 speeding tickets on my record and only being 22 I'm only paying 850 a year insurance. My state of mind on bikes is that you start out way small then move up when you are TOTALLY comfortable with the small stuff. After this bike I will be moving up to a 600 or a Suzuki SV650. Then I'll move to 750 then up to the liter bikes. Just the teachings my dad (a previous motorcycle racer). I think it makes complete sense and although going out and buying the big GSXR 750 or 1000 is soooo damn tempting I refuse. I've ridden everything up to 1000cc's and yes they do haul and yes I prolly would kill myself. Teach yourself your limits on something less likely to bury you. Just my 2 cents.
