You will be fine, the GS500F is my first bike. I've had it for a good year now and love it.
It's impossible to do a wheelie, the rear break isn't hypersensitive (you won't lock it and murder yourself, just get into the mind set that front is for stopping, and rear is just for fun), and the top speed is around 180-200km/h (never hit 200, got VERY close but then bike started shaking so I got scared).
I've also got piss poor hand-eye coordination skills that are way below human average standards (fractured my skull from riding a bicycle, fractured my shin from soccer, dislocated shoulder from shoulder pressing).
You will be perfectly fine seeing as how I managed to tame this bike lol =)
If a Ninja 250 can wheelie so can a GS500F. But i think what he means is, under hard acceleration without dumping the clutch. e.g... No power wheelies.

back on topic, don't rent from gta exotics. I've read quite a few negative reviews about them, but that was regarding car rentals.

I'm actually surprised to hear that they're this bad. I wonder how many takers they get for their "Full Throttle Motorcycle Package" ... I'd be mightily ****** if all their bikes are that poorly maintained.

The owner's wife is smoking hot...I rented a gsxr a few years ago and it didn't have the correct ownership/insurance, the clutch lever was cut, and they removed the muffler. Used the bike to take my M test and the instructors were not impressed. They let me take the test and do the course though.
I think they're still in business 'cause they have a monopoly on exotic car/bike rentals in toronto. Is there any other option for renting a bike in the GTA?
I was really looking forward to get their 'get to drive 5 supercars in one day' thing for my dad this summer. I wish I never read the feedbacks above.... =)

I did the 6 Supercar Day as a gift from my wife for my birthday... It was ALOT of fun! Just go in there with the right expectations... You are not going to be able to do burnouts and drive really aggresively, but they let you have fun. And I met Peter Klutt from DreamCarGarage after getting out of the Lambo, before getting in the GTR at his Car Museum in Burlington... Cant remember the name ATM. The Gallardo is 100% real. So were the rest, the Viper did feel clapped out tho. Sounded nice and still had a v10.
I wish my lawn was Emo- so it would cut itself!
