My newbie two cents comes from this:
Last Wednesday Zippy was kind enough to split a full track day at BHF with me on his '02 GSXR 750. I'd NEVER ridden an I4 in any situation and started straight away on a bike pretty much set to go (both our weights were nearly identical for his suspension setup, slicks, slipper clutch, front Brembo radial master, etc.) I started out the day ~2:00 minutes a lap and by the last four sessions I was in around the 1:35's.
Long story short, I'm hoping to get my whole setup for next year and after riding his 750 that thing felt great and had plenty of power. I'd sure not get a 1k bike for starters, and I could probably swing a 750 but I wouldn't hesitate against any 600 either.
