          You can get plenty for $4k. I'd suggest a Suzuki SV650. It's light, easy to ride, inexpensive, easy to modify, and they look pretty damn sweet. Plus the sound of a twin is awesome!

                Get the 250. Get your feet wet. Zac has a point, but the 250 will be far more forgiving in the two situations where he laid down the bikes.

                  My vote is for the sv650, pretty good starter bike, comfortable, looks waayy better than the 250, and its enough bike that you wont want to sell it next summer......oh and it doesnt sound like a lawnmower like the 250.

                      Wooo SV650 FTW!! the only bad about the SV is that its torque as fuck. The bike is pretty retarded at picking up the front end at almost any speed. Once again get whatever you want, just don't be a stupid fuck on it.

                      Edit: On a side note my SV might be for sale this coming the spring, mint condish.............

                              i would say sv650, after riding a few bike's, and being a n00b at riding that i am.

                              It is a fun bike yet is very user friendly. i liked it alot

                                    i would stay away from the early R6's if you want to go that route, they had a second gear problem where they would always go out. i would go with a CBR or GSXR if your gonna go with a early 600. and you probably will get bored with a 250, there really slow.

                                      The second gear issue only affected a small number of 99-01 R6's. It caused the bike to slip out of gear every once and I while at high rpms. I never had a problem on my 01 and I would have to say I preferred it hands down over the 07 ZX6R that I owned. It felt way lighter, the seat was more comfortable, and it actually felt faster. The best bike I can think of to start out on in the 600 class however would have to be the F3 or F4i. Both are fun, run forever if maintained, and are damn near indestructible. These threads are making me want a bike again!

                                        Its a pretty bad ass bike and supposedly not as brutal to ride as most Aprilia's. Just have to get that weird triangular exhaust off and replaced with something better.

                                          Speaking from experience here. Start off on a 250. You'll be happy you did. Don't ride over your head, thats way too easy to do on a 600, well on any bike for that matter. You should start small and slow and move up to bigger bikes as your skill level increases. Way back in the day I started off on a 125cc 4 stroke enduro bike riding around town. You wanna talk about slow, haha that thing was crazy slow. You'll scare yourself on a 250 Ninja the first time you rip through 1st gear. You'll get more and more used to it, and more brave as you go. Then you hop on a 600, rip through 1st gear, and piss your pants because it feels so fast. Most people start off on the wrong bikes with way too much power.
