That is a good bike to start with. They are pretty cheap new but you can pick up a good used one for around $2000 give or take. I saw a few on the cycle trader here in Florida...

The older GS500's are somewhat hard to come by as a lot of them are being snapped up by amateur racers. They are great bikes!

Perhaps maybe a 2000 Honda CBR 600F4? still pretty powerfull, but considered a good entry levle sport bike.

just a word of warning dont ever post your number you dont know who these people are no offence guys but theres some f-up people out there.. this site is pretty good and you will get lots of help but keep it on the site. especially if your a girl. what year of that bike are you lookin for. if you cant find one i would look at a honda hawk late 80s/ 87. great starter bike very forgiving, v-twin.

I've got a mild 600cc bike that would make a nice beginner bike. I'm in Pittsburgh, PA. I tried to IM you, but your mobile wouldn't take it. I'll try to IM you again later...
oh, and sorry for editing your post... posting your phone number is a VERY dangerous move.
