Sexy beast!
That MV Augusta has been my dream bike, since it came out.
I've been riding for over 12 years and have owned many different bikes. I mainly commuted on a motorcycle until I was hit recently coming home from work.
Here are a few i've owned over the last few years (sorry the pics suck).
1986 Honda Magna v45
1999 Suzuki GSX-R 750
2007 Honda VFR (current ride).
If I were to recommend a bike for a new rider, I would say go for anything BUT a bike with full fairings.
You WILL drop it at some point, even if its pulling out of the garage or at a stop light, and when that happens it's much worse when you are embarrassed AND your fairings are smashed.
The sv650 is a great bet. Cheap and plentiful, good amount of torque, and you won't outgrow it overnight.
Also, take the safety class now!
It'll save your ass.
