Have you narrowed down your search?

Prefer naked or have fairing? You like speed and roasting your legs? H2/S1000RR/Panigale 1299 Superleggera ?
MT-09 maybe? Or prefer a more comfortable ride such as Versys 1000?
Well I consider myself a beginner. Years of riding a moped. Just wanna have bigger bike for daily commute and fun on the weekend long ride. Below are my narrowed down list I posted in a few pages back:
Triumph street triple R: abs, no TC
Z800: heaviest, abs, no TC
Mt09: somehow I takot this bike, mcm wheelie monster je so will skip this
Monster 821: abs, TC..but mahal a bit lah. If can find good 2nd hand option I'd be happy
owh btw I tested Monster 821, just do circle at the parking lot. First time on a big bike with clutch. Felt natural though. I flat footed on a Panigale. It felt nimble stationary. I then sat on zx6r, and man it felt much heavier than a Panigale with heavier clutch feels.
And then I go see my friend's zx10r..I don't think it's a bike. Itu macam elephant! Not something that I want to sit on at all.
My criteria is at least 600cc, abs and TC. Cheapest option that met my requirement is mt09 ckd..but a bit less hensem than z800. I wish z800 has all the features of the zx6r 636 but I guess we can't have it all
Then heard lots of z800 users bought and sell theirs, and ended up buying a superbike with fairing instead. Hurm
