New rider needs advice.?

I’m taking lessons two weeks from now to teach me the basics and everything regarding bikes and they require me to get some boots and gloves. What’s the best brand of bike apparel out there? My other question is: If I survive the whole learning experience, what bikes (crotch rocket) should I be considering? I’ve heard the higher the number the faster it’ll go and usually anything around 250 is really light but I’m wanting something that’ll go reasonably fast yet still be fairly light, I’m not really sure what I should be looking for. Any suggestions on what I should take a look at?

Joe Rocket has awesome apparel…
As for your first bike get a ninja 250, the number is the cc of engine… bigger engine generally means more power, and more weight, thats why the smaller the number (size) the lighter.

The Kawasaki Ninja 250 is a cheap bike, only $3k from the showroom floor, and insurance and gas is NOTHING. They’re still reasonably fast for you first 6 months of riding and alot of fun, and they hold their value better than any other bike. If you still have to get a bigger one, check out the Kawasaki 650r.
