Riding school should be your first step. Decide on your bike after. A majority of motorcycle skills are NOT intuitive -- you will not learn proper form without proper instruction. After the course you will notice most motorcyclists have extremely poor form.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with whatever bike choice afterward. You don't need to go get something like a 250, however a higher-powered bike initially will hinder your growth and education as a rider.
