Beginner

Hope here someone can help me with his experience.I want to buy my first motorcycle soon, just don’t know which is the better, or easiest for me. actually I wanted to have the duke 2 with 54 ps, but in the reports on the internet things like : jerks on it highway, or you have to sound too much in the city, and that it comes up at the front very quickly. have then looked further and found the 950 sm with 98 ps. the 950 is with 98 ps twice as sc hnell, but also twice as heavy.. hope someone can give me a good tip what a beginner might be the better….
