Default New gixxer

Hey everyone. Obviously new to these boards but auto boards have been cool to me so hopefully you guys will be too. I have a question that I need some help with. My wife has never driven a bike...ever. She has been a passenger a dozen times and wants a bike dearly, for almost 2 years now...nag nag nag. I finally caved in, but now she wants a Gixxer 600. I don't know a whole lot about bikes, but I think that is too much bike for a novice. Am I right? Any suggestions? Oh yeah, she also wants a new one...I want an older bike so if and when she lays it down we don't cry about hurting a beautiful new bike. Thanks a lot guys...and gals.
