[sv650s]

it's not mostly about cc's, a sv650s and a ninja 650r are both over 600cc's but they are great beginner bikes still. when people say no 600 bikes they mean the gsxr, cbr, zx series etc.

here's my list of good beginner bikes:
2003- present suzuki sv650s
hyosung comet gt650r
aprilia rs125/rs250
honda cbr f2/f3
kawasaki ninja 250r/500r/650r
