FZ is perfect option for you....
bieng a first time biker,your priorities should be- awesum handling and comfort,,, FZ is the bike you should have....
But in my opinion, dont try learning on a new bike.first learn from an old bike then buy the new 1,else you might screw up the pistons,in run in period itself....

Thumbs up

yes, FZ would be a good option for u being a lerner.
its a great bike

you can just check out fz owernership thread here
Yamaha FZ-16
and subscribe to it when you get one

other options - any 150cc bike would be good to start with, as you would get to learn and handle more BHP's in proper and in a right way from the beginning.

i am sure that FZ will teach you how to ride and you need not to learn anything.
all the best

regards
(FZ-16 RIDER)

FZ is my first bike learning and after that riding it to its limit..11 months and I am fully satisfied proud owner..close your eyes go for it..my first impression was as it was tailor made for me(a guy who didn't know riding)..follow run-in process religiously till first 1000km..and then open up the throttle and enjoy the magic of power mixed with superb handling..

I too learnt to ride on the FZ which is 7.5 months now.
had no issues getting used to the manual riding of bikes after riding automatic scooters.
FZ is comfortable and fun too.

just make sure you do a proper run-in and it will give you the smile back for years to come
