depends on what you want.
i have a hayabusa, and recently bought a ducati ST2 on ebay.
i would not recommend a ducati if you are new to streetbikes or not mechanically inclined.
any jap bike will be mostly reliable and there are basically 2 camps in the bike world---sportbikes and "cruisers". alot depends on the types of roads you have where you live---sportbikes are more fun on the curvy roads, cruisers better on the interstate.
you can ride safely if you have experience---take a motorcycle training course if avail, many states require a motorcycle endorsement for your license, and statistically MOST lethal accidents happen to new riders within the first 90 days of ownership.
where proper protection and a good helmet (arai, shoei, etc).
good luck.
