"750 is the right speed for me now" - based on what? A newbie sportbiker should NOT start out on a 750cc ride.

"will it be fine to get a 1000cc or more?" - No. Bad idea. If you do, please make sure your parents have a GREAT insurance policy on you.

"good starter bike" - Ninja 250. Take the MSF class first to find out if you really want to ride streetbikes, then worry about what bike you should get.

"I learn fast" - That's nice. It has nothing to do with your self-assessment. This question ("What should I get as a new sportbike rider?") should be its own category. Go back into the "Motorcycles" category and count how many times a different variation of the question is asked. Under each one, the majority of the answers from experienced folks all say the same thing: "Start small, take the class, wear all the equipment you can handle, and RESPECT THE BIKE".
