Havent researched the power level of it, but the Versys is a dead sexy naked option good for tall guys. Its one of the options my 6'4" hubby is looking at.

its the same as the 650r

does it have to be a sportbike variant? If not I usually aim people towards olsder standard bikes. Nighthawk 650 or 750 are great. Yeah a bit heavy but very forgiving in the control area.
especially someone taller may find it more comfortable to learn while not "crowded" on a bike.

Too bad you'll never want to buy one new - the Aprilia will drop into more than half it's showroom price by rolling it out the door.

Michelle, the 2-valve Ducatis [monster] are NOT more expensive to maintain than the japanese counterparts. And, if you get a legacy model there are TONS of things you can do to them...

Would be a decent first bike assuming there is nothing majorly wrong with it.
