How about the 2017 Suzuki Van Van? I love its styling and it seems like a fun little bike to start with at 200cc and relatively low pricetag (around $4500 I think?)


I would absolutely not spend $4500 on that - definitely get a Honda Grom (MSX125) or Kawi Z125 Pro if you want a little non-highway city bike, should be perfect for learning too.

But for real just go used for a first bike, Ninja 250, CBF300, etc. Anything small and Japanese will be forgiving and very reliable - I would also make sure you get something with fuel injection. Carburetors are very annoying if you just want to go out and ride unless you live in a perpetually warm climate.
