Size is definitely critical. I dunno if people still do this but "back in my day" we would lay the bike on its side on top of our person to see if we could pick it up off ourselves. Aside from seat height (absolutely critical), engine size and weight would be important. If you can't control your bike there'll be trouble ahead.
I second Motorcycle Safety Class and Beginner's Class.
Once you ride your life will never be the same again. You will even become a better driver (cars).
Good Luck.
