Good plan, test ride the bandit, then make your own mind up. Its your bike get the one that you like. that works best for you.

CB500.... IMHO as Matt has said you'll get bored of that very very very quickly.
If its the newer CBF600. That might be more fun in the long run. I've not ridden one so I dont know what it'll be like. Seems to get favourable reviews in the bike magazines.
Get a test ride on that to. See what it feels like to ride.
At the end of the day you pays your money you makes your choice. Personally I found the SV was easy to ride when I just started on a bigger bike. But after a while I was able to explore its potential a bit more. Its one of those bikes that you have room to grow into as your riding skills build.
