New here... Now what?

Hey all,
Really happy to find this site. I don't have a bike yet but will later in the year. So I thought I'd start doing the research now and get my "ducks in a row", before I spend any cash. I have had two bikes about 15 years ago. The first one was a Kawasaki 650 CSR and the second was a Suzuki GS750.
The 650 had a Kerker 4in1 and drag bars, wasn't a beast by any means but was fun to ride. With that in mind I'm thinking a KZ900 or 1000 streetfighter. So what I need is pointed in the right direction as far as sources of info. Any help is appreciated in advance.

Thanks, Doog
