I visit a lot of bike shops, and everyone has brand-new sportbikes with almost 0 miles on them sitting in the service dept that were crashed by new riders who hadn't made it a mile before crashing....
I know there is a certain contingent that advocate that a full-on sportbike is a good first bike....

Some of us were those guys at one point too. Another thing to add is how fast things have advanced with technology on these bikes and how you can get yourself in more trouble now than on a 600 from the 90's.
I am fine with those kids crashing those bikes too since it makes more cheaper track bikes available
