Friend getting a Daytona 675

Off topic a bit but on another forum I was reading a person just finished his MSF course Sunday but had been practicing on his new bike before he took the corse. 
Yeah he has 06 busa limited.

Alright. I have a real problem with people like this because they'll eventually do something stupid on these bikes that will require a call to theirs or someone else's insurance company. What does this do? Continues to give responsible riders bad reps and increases bike insurance premiums for all. I really don't want to be paying what Canadians are paying for insurance. Please tell your friend to not be an idiot.

Oh, you could move to a different bike yourself and let him use the GS to gain experience. That would at least be safer.

Yeah i was at the bike shop In Roanoke and two 16-18 yr olds with parents who had just got their class Ms were getting busas.  They had taken the course on their moped and had practiced enouph they were ready for a BIG bike.  Parents signed and off they went...  The salesman informed them that there was the MSF safty course that he recomended and they snickered and said it was a waist of good gas money.  Now my friend want's to take the class and read the this could happen you book I am making and wants advice on everything.  That is why I am not so worried but still bothered by his desicion to get a 'good' bike first.

I wish that i could do that, hell if i owned my bike i would give it to him to ride and possibly trash and get another bike myself.   Then when he was done i would take the bike or the peices and sell them.  I don't think he will intentionally be an idot, in fact i don't think he will be an idiot at all.  Plus, i would beg to differ that if a inexperienced, jackass off any age gets a motorcycle of any sort is the one who gets the fast non-beginner badged bike is only going to find the ditch, car, wall, post, windshield ....... a lot faster than the one on the beginner bike ...... at most 2 seconds faster.
