Honda RVF400, got lots of power excellent handling balance and brakes.

I race a VFR400 on the track and when i go past 600cc bikes its just a awesome
feeling. The VFR400 and RVF400 are soo chuckable and handle like very few bikes ive ridden. Take one for a spin and youll realise how much fun they are.
And they so shouldn't be learner legal, not to mention they are old as and over priced. Not saying I wouldn't take one as a track bike given the chance.

The best learners are nakeds and dirt bikes. Buy something you can afford to drop. And dont buy anything smaller than a 250 and try and avoid the aircooled singles as well. Anything less will leave you bored in a month.
