ANY CB650-750, I'm not too keen on the 80's kawis, those years were some poor engineering on their part.

Kawi torque..... that's all that needs to be said.

He has already had one of those.

I would second the bandit/SV, but also add the Honda CB1100 if you can find one.

Are you looking for old and simple, or just a cheap all around great bike. If that is your criteria, then look at the VTR1000 and ZRX1100
