As for learning how to ride all the US bikers on forums I frequent swear by the Motorcycle Safety Foundation. Here's the link:

Suggest you learn to ride first and then worry about what type of bike to get.

 

also check out www.sportbikes.net. it has a ton of good info and a newbie area. that is where i got most of my info before i started riding. (currently kawasaki ninja 500r)

i also recommend taking the msf course in your area before street riding, it gives you the basics and lowers your insurance. plus it gives you the skills that may save your live someday.
