As a new rider the very last thing that you want is a 600. It's a bloody lousy starter bike.

Get a 250. You'll learn to ride better and learn to ride faster and have a much better chance of surviving the learning process. For an experienced rider they're more fun than bigger bikes because you can really wring them out on the road. Until you realise this you're not ready for a bigger bike.

Get an old one, so that your wallet doesn't burst into tears when you drop it.

There's a good argument for spending more on your riding gear and MSF course than you spend on your first bike.
