I have to agree with blackie first take the course and decide if you can see yourself riding often. Some people think that it looks like fun but then when they get doing it its not for them.
Do your research also. The bike your looking at from what I have read is a decent learning bike not too big and not too small. Still sit on all styles and read up on pros and cons to them. You'll be happier with your choice and safer for gaining more knowledge.
