None of the above if this is you first bike you really don't want something with that much power. Its much eaiser to learn on a smaller bike and then move up later on. i started on my dads Shadow 750 ACE 2 years ago, and that was a big bike but i have been racing dirtbikes since i was 8 so i know how to ride. With that said i still took the MSF classes the into and the advanced. They point out alot about riding you need to know. I just steped up to a CBR929rr 2 weeks ago and love it. Yes this is my first street bike that i own but like i said i have been riding my dads bikes (750ace, VTX1800) for many years. If you have never ridden before you really should look into the MSF course, and then one of the 250cc or 500cc starter bikes, all the big 4 make sport bikes under 500cc which is what you should be looking into for a starter bike. A 1000cc bike is alot of bike to start on.
Thats just my 2 cents

Not so newby afterall. Get what you can afford. Insurance also is a deciding factor when buying one of your choices.

all these bikes are way different than a dirt bike..... any 1 of these 3 bikes will be well over 150 b4 a cat can lick its all.... if i were you i would start small with a 600 or a 750 but if your going to go all out and not listen to anyone.....i like all 3 and i do love my cbr but if i had the money i would buy the hyabusa..... but thats just me...
