Buell Blast 500 VS Honda Nighthawk 250??

I am getting my first motorcycle very soon and deciding between a Blast or Nighthawk.I'm just very confused because Blast has more power having 500 cc, however single cylindered which will heat up faster and stress the motor more than V-twin 250.My primary use for my first bike would be commuting from street to highways.Here are some Pros and Cons I Found:Nighthawk:Pros- 250cc twin-cylinder, $1000 cheaper than blastCons- Max speed @ 60mph, small engine sizeBlast:Pros-Big engine, more stylish, handles highway, more man-ishCons- Single cylindered, reliability, $1000 more than hondaso on..Which do YOU suggest is better?Answers from riders who own the vehicles?Thnks for reading

Start slow and get a 250 cc class. You can always sell it and recoup some cost later for a bigger bike (so it isn't a total lost).Some people say that you shouldn't start with 250cc because you will get tire of it. But you would tire of 650cc class also - so following that logic a beginner should start with 1000 cc class. NOT!A bike that's too powerful will intimidate the rider. And you will not have enough experience to control all the power - if you are NOT intimidated.KNow about this:http://home1.gte.net/res0ak9f/bike.htm===Start slowly and respect the dangers of riding. The more you respect it, the safer you will ride. I ride knowing the dangers so I don't do stupid stuff when I ride&I don't take unnecessary risk when I ride.Good Luck...P.S. The 250 NightHawk is NOT a V twin. It is Parallel twin.
