A bike for me?

I really enjoy riding the 600, but I have come to the realisation that me + that bike= too fast, and if I get in trouble with the law I am putting my career on the line. I also find it a little tall in the seating and when trying to lower it with my links the shock hit the swingarm so that was a no go. Sports bikes are what I like, and now I am struggling to think of a bike that may be better suited to my needs, but still provide a few thrills.

I have begun looking at other bikes, and have been suggessted an ER6F/N however these bikes do not have the look that I like. I have been looking at Kawasaki Z750's for the fact they are naked and aggressive looking, and the wind resistance might encourage less throttle (have also looked at the monsters and fazers, but they are not what I am after either). I have also been looking at the Harley 883's as I have seen one blacked out that looked full of attitude and I have no issues riding a nice sportster.

Just wondering if any ladies out there have any ideas for a bike that looks a little bit edgy with some attitude that could be lowered if needed. I am about 5,9 and 60kg

Do try the GSX650F too! Brilliant bike!

I know you seem keen on newer bikes but since you have a mechanic with benefits, what about a VFR400? There are still tidy examples around, more power than a 250 but less than a 600 and more usable power at that too. And when you want a bigger road bike again you can turn the VFR into an awesome track bike.
