Bah, nobody looks good all slumped over a rice rocket. Buy a HD Road King, grow a beard, get some skull tattoos and practice snarling. You won't look any better, but nobody will say squat to you.
Seriously, you ride a bike for two reasons, Get from point A to point B and sheer pleasure. How you look ain't got nothing to do with it.

1. R6 and GSXRs are not novice bikes.
2. When you are riding you cannot see yourself and you will be having too good a time to give a monkey’s toss what other people think about you.
Take a professional training course, get a small (displacement) bike, learn to ride it, learn roadcraft, after several thousand miles move up to another larger bike.
Do not imagine that your size or weight dictate that you must start with an unsuitable bike.

*Anyone* riding a sport bike look like a monkey humping a football. You would look like a gorilla humping a football.
I don't know why you want a 160+mph racing motorcycle. Maybe because you will be running Track Days, maybe you do race on the track, maybe you want to ride the freeways doing 140+ mph, maybe you just want to *own* a hot motorcycle even if you are a pitiful rider and it is a waste -- if you want the bike just get it and ride it and ignore what others think.
