in the end 99% of it is really about how much you respect the power. you'll hear people saying how its this and that but none of it matters if you take it easy and don't ride beyond your skill level. one thing i will attest to is that the initial learning phase is quite a bit harder on a 600 mainly because of how the bike is set up. they have a very wide turning radius, an aggressive seating position and very sharp brakes. all of these factors come into play especially when you're going at low speeds and riding in the city.
when i started on my gsxr750 the hardest part was getting around in a parking lot. you're making maneuvers at 5-10km/h while dodging chinese ladies and balancing a 400 pound hunk of metal underneath you. needless to say i had a my share of embarrassing moments lol. however the training you'll receive at PRS should help a lot in getting the hang of low speed riding so i wouldn't worry too much about it. in the end you have to ask yourself how mature you can be on the bike because you need to toss all the ego out the window when riding these damn things.
