I'd suggest a Suzuki Bandit 1200. Cheap when new, cheap now. A couple years ago I bought another one for $2800 from the original owner, with 1800 miles on it. Something with more miles would be less money and these things run forever.

I wouldn't buy a bike that's already been down, for a variety of reasons. The mentality of "There are two type of riders; ones that have been down, and ones that will go down" is crap in my opinion. I've been riding around 40 years without any incidents and if I were you, I'd strive to have a mindset that you need to stay out of trouble and never wreck a bike. Not saying you should feel invincible, just approach it like a pilot approaches flying. Mistakes are not an option...
