Trick question....it depends on the person no so much the bike. I started out on a GSX-R 600 with no problems. It is not that I was some great rider or anything but I simply had respect for the bike and what it can do. I have still yet to buy a bike over a 600 for the same reason...respect. There are many "seasoned" riders out there on their liter bikes that I would tell them not to buy anything over a 500 if I could beacuse of the way they ride.
You have to simply be honest with yourself and know if you do or do not have the control to be on a bigger sportbike.
