No doubt a smaller bike will get you in to less trouble. But save that one incdent i have been fine. You just have to maintain enough self contol not to try stupid things. I'm sure a 250 rider could beat an R1 in some cases but not if there were any hills involved. I would not want to ride a 250 the bike is made shottly compaired to my R6, but if you want to buy one just to learn on because its cheep and will not kick your ass when you make a mistake i think its great!
No matter what you get you just have to ride responsibly and ride within your limmits preferably a good ways below you limmits. All it take is one crash that goes badly to end your fun forever.
