Yes. Get a smaller bike to start with, i.e. 250. You won't regret it. If I can go back in time I would definitely get a 250 instead of my 600. Ride the 250 for a season or two, then upgrade.
As for the haggle, are you buying it from a private sale or a dealership? If dealership then $1500 off on a $6000 bike is rare. That's 25% off. Unless they are doing the clearance, still rare. Sometimes they will give you the discount but increase the all the doc fees so at the end you will probably only get a few hundred dollars off.
If this is your first bike I would strongly recommend getting a pre-owned. There are tons of 250s (Ninja, CBR) on Craigslist. If you are lucky you can probably make a profit on the 250 when you sell it next season.
Good luck.
