If its your first bike I'd suggest something a little smaller. The power to weight ratio on that bike is something novices need to get used to. However you will want to trade up quickly! Also like a car if you take care of it it will last a long time. Keep the maintenance up on it! and remember unlike a car you really need to look over your bike EVERY time you get on it, you never know when a bolt is going to come loose. Just about had it happen to me. Changed the rear brake, and 2 weeks later the lugs on the back tire were almost all loose when I got to work.
