what should I buy as my first motorcycle?
I want to buy a motorcycle.
I still doubt. I have seen a honda cb 750 - naked bike and a honda cbr 600.
What are the most important differences?

OMG Pete! You are the first person on here Ive seen say that! It is sooo true! A Suzuki RGV500 is perhaps the worst possible bike for a novice, but the 1200 Sporty is a pussy cat!
Its all about what the bike was designed for.
The CB750 is designed to be a economical commuter.
It needs less maitence, is more comfortable, has a more tractable motor, and gets better gas milage.
The CBR600F is a "middle weight" sportbike, and thus has less concession to usefulness and is optimized for performance.
The lower the CC the better. Beginning on a bike with a huge engine is bound to get you in trouble rather easily. If you still want one of those two I’d take the naked one. Maintenance is cheaper on naked bikes for the lack of fairings. But if you could look for a bike with a lower CC, say 500 or less, even better.
no no no! big engines have nothing to do with power! i could name 250’s that are faster than 650’s suzukis rgv vs bmw f650 for example, whats more important is what ar you using the bie for, the cbr will be faster top end and get there quicker than the 750, it will also handle better, on the other hand the 750 will produce the power at a lower rpm, therefore makeing the power more accesable, basically its down to what you want, relaxed cruising, pleny of torx, or faster more exciting riding, personally id say go for the cbr, 2 of my friends have had them as 1st bike, fast but not to fast and very forgiving and easy to ride.
First of all you never said how old you are. old enough for a drivers license? Did you take a MSC? (Motorcycle Safety Course) If you said old enough to have one of these for gods sake get the fastest one. Ride hard die fast.
out of the two options you’ve given, the cbr 600 is better in every possible way,
and they are great learning bikes, they have a user friendly power curve, and handle nicely
although i hope you’ve had some experience before you go riding around on either of them
also it doesnt cost anything to maintain fairings just dont crash
