600cc is NOT a beginner bike. Do yourself a favor and get the WRX. It doesn't sound like you are ready for a bike yet.

If you are hell bent on a bike, first take the MSF class. Then get your license. Then get a used Kawasaki Ninja 250 or 500 or Suzuki GS500E. These bikes are still fast, but won't punish you if you make a small mistake as much as a 600cc and higher bike will.
After you learn to ride these, then upgrade later. There's always a market for used, smaller CC ninjas, so when you sell later down the road, you won't lose much money.

Don't be a statistic.

<flame suit on>

As a side note, I own a Yamaha R6 now as my commute bike, and had a Gixxer 600 and Ninja 500 in the past. All this is spoken from true experience.

Ya I said the same thing and got hit with points... He is deaf.. now you know. (Not that I think that gives him more rights then anyone else)

As for the OT.. I would re think your position on riding... If you are in fact deaf you will find it very unsafe to ride, as sound is very important and has saved my but over the 13 years riding and racing.
