Im figuring out what bike will be best for a inexp. rider Im 6'2" 220 lbs I will be riding on hwy alot and long distant sometime like 3-4 hours rides after I gain some exp first. I don't want anything I will get tired of quick.

Give me a list and your suggestions.... please thank you very much.
 
I applaud you for starting small. But there isn't much in that size range in the US. Japan has DOZENS of 400's, but that's because their tax system makes anything bigger REALLY expensive.
250 will be to small for you, at least very soon.

A sport bike isn't suited to highway rides of 3-4 hrs. It'll kill your back.

I'd recommend a Ninja 500. It's called a ninja, but it's closer to a 'standard' bike.

For your second bike, I'd suggest a V-Strom 650. I know a few guys that enjoy putting LOTs of miles on theirs.
 
sport bikes arent necessarily the best solutions for you. since you will travel long distances on them, it will start to be quite painful and uncomfortable. a better solution would be to use something like a naked. there are plenty out there. however ranges between 250-500cc are very rare unless you want a dirt bike. most bikes start off at 600cc and thats ok especially for your size. i personally like the Ducati Monster 696. cant get any better than that. the Suzuki Gladius 650 is also very nice. if you dont like naked, try to get some sort of mixed type of motorcycle. not a sport one. a naked will still give you the thrill but in a confier driving position

however if you do want to look into some nice sport one, check out Kawasaki Ninja. they have a 400cc version i think. and a 600cc of course. the Kawasaki er6-n is also nice. its somewhere in between a sport one and a naked
