First bike...what should I get?

Alright so I'm 22, female, 5'5" around 120-125lbs. I am trying to figure out what type of sports bike would be best for me to get first. I want a bike that other bikers would think is a nice bike, not a crappy one lol.

I would like something with a nice look to it but also very good with handling and speed. This is because I will be riding with other people that own nice bikes,

I have thought about potentially getting an R6, however I have read that I should stay at a 600 cc bike until I am more experienced. If you could please tell me the names of some bikes and if they would be adequate for my size that would be great.

Thank You
I know the the what the R6 is but it also has R in it which means racing. Which I forgot to mention through what I have looked up people say steer clear of racing bikes for your first one...that is why I am torn on if I should get the R6 or not.
 
A sports bike for an inexperienced rider is not a good choice. Something with less power, and acceleration would be a better choice. Learn on a cruiser, then get something with more oomph if you would like.
 
sportster is a good bike, the reason I am saying that for you it does not have speed and it is a good beginner bike, also the 600 is probably too tall for you. but it is a good machine. look around at a shop that has multi brands, also Bule offers a 500 that would be a shorter bike so you can put your feet down.Also the weight is very important I dont think you could lift 400 lbs which most 600 are.. if tips

good luck
