ZX6E has about 100hp. Definately a bit much for a first time rider.
A friend of mine has a 91 ZX6D and that bike will hit 100 in the blink of an eye and easily lift up the front wheel. Definately not beginner friendly
95 honda night hawk 750 good starter

The 750 hawk would be a better choice than the ninja.
The 750 nighthawk is usually considered about the upper limit for a starter bike. power is comparable to an SV650 but the bike is heavier and the engines powerband a bit milder.
If your going to get one of the two get the nighthawk.
The hawk is also less likely to have been abused.
