Personally I’d recommend a Honda. They are cheap and durable. The most important thing is to learn to ride defensively and wear a helmet. If you take the time to understand positioning, other driver behavior, and how to handle hazards you’ll do great
As for all-rounders, they aren’t the sexiest bikes but any upright dual-sport or adventure type are going to be the most fun and most versatile. Sport bikes are quick, cruisers are sexy and comfy, but damn did I love ripping around on a XT250.
