Looking for motorcycle advice

[Laufen]

Hey ODT crew. I've been recently bitten by the bike bug. When I get back to the US I think I'm going to buy a sport bike or touring bike. I'm just looking for suggestions of notoriously high quality used brands/models. I'm probably going to look at something in the 650cc range. I have very little motorcyle experience, but grew up in the country riding everything from four wheelers to bulls. I'd like to find something fairly easy to learn on. Any suggestions in the $3k - $4k range used?

The Kawasaki Ninja 650R is an excellent choice. Had one and loved it but had no time to ride. Google the model and I think you will read a lot of good things about them. You can find them with low miles in your price range too.

I don't, I'll have to do that when I get back.

Why? Not doubting your advice at all, just curious why it's your first choice.
