Welcome to the forum. It's good that you can admit to yourself that the GS500F was a bit too much for you to get started. I think you will like the little X22R, even if it will seem a bit slow by comparison. Small bikes are a great way to learn how to ride and hone your skills without having to worry about putting down too much power or going way too fast.
I will say this, once you gain some confidence and are looking to upgrade to a bigger bike, keep the X22R around. You would be amazed at how much fun a small engine bike can be, even with its lack of power/speed.
