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

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

I bought a CB750 new in 2003 and rode it until this February. Probably the best all-around motorcycle I've ever had, but if I get a new standard, I'd like another flavor.

Something to which I can bolt some hard bags, also.

How are the older, non-faired, 4-cylinder Goldwings on maintenance?

Once you get to that kind age....
Maintenance is tough to predict
