It might also be a good idea to master the basics of normal riding before getting into stunting...

Whatever, dude. Anyone can stunt from day one. Why would anyone want to actually master the bike prior to riding on the ragged edge?!?!

I just recently purchased a 06 599 and would reccomend it as a first bike, all my friends have sportbikes, I just always liked the look of a naked bike, the comfort helps too.

As far as riding, I had never riden a motorcycle before the day I jumped on mine at the dealer two weeks ago, I rode it around the parking lot a few times that day, had a friend bring it home, than rode some more around some deserted industrial areas, the next day I was on the highway...still haven't done over 80 though...300 miles on the bike already.

I owned an 02 F4i and have ridden the other, the f4i is less powerfull and probably handles a HAIR sloppier than the r6, but I rode my bike everyday, and it was my first.

That being said, the F4i is GREAT if you're not a veteran rider, it will make up for some extra driver error that the R6 won't.
The F4i is a great riding bike and I would suggest them ALL DAY LONG!

my first bike and still is my current ride is an 02 f4i also. I must say its an amazing machine. I like it alot cuz its comfortable and rides smooth. Its very forgiving and rider friendly as well. my 2 other friends have an f4i as well. I wouldnt change it yet. Its been a year and i have no reason or urge to upgrade. to me its alot of power still and alot of fun. just my 2 cents

03+ R6 is different story.
Yeah I agree. I have a silver/black F4i and I love it. Like sickests2k00 said, it's more forgiving and rider friendly which is good for a new rider like yourself. Good luck man.
