Definitely take the MSF course, before you buy a bike. It's invaluable.
I also second the recommendation to start small. I'm also a big believer in buying used. Your first bike should be an easy to ride machine that will allow you to focus on riding techniques, not on keeping the power under control or struggling with the weight. Smaller cruisers and small-medium standard style bikes are great. Buy something like that for $2,000-$3,000, ride it for a couple of years, then sell it for most of what you paid for it and move up. Or you might just decide that a smaller machine is just fine for you.
Riding is a great hobby or sport or whatever you want to call it. Best to do it safely and smartly so you can enjoy it without worry. Wear full gear, get training, ride a bike that's not out of your league, and avoid risky situations.
