Kawasaki Ninja 650R and Suzuki SV650 are also good starter bikes that will also have more performance to them as you learn and gain experience.
I started on my F4i after taking the MSF class and getting my license. So no one says you have to start on a low bike. But it's more forgiving to beginners. Either way, definitely get a class under your belt first.

I started on a F4i as well AFTER taking the MSF.

Go out and sit on as many bikes as you're interested in as possible. Just because people make out CBRs to sound like the best (which is all a matter of opinion) doesn't mean it will be the best for you. Maybe an R6 will be more comfortable for you. Who knows.
