big question - what where are you going? commuter, play? I really like thumpers - simple single cylinder bikes. Any of them with do well and are pretty frugal on gas. BMW-F650GS and Kawi-KLR650 cheap on gas great on tarmac as well as capable on gravel modest off road in stock configuration. Suzuki DR650 better off road - but still loads of fun on road - lighter - oil / air cooled - no rads to smash, nimble, torquier / buzzy but not bad. Suzuki DL650 nice as well... I've never ridden the KTM's love the 640 LC4 and the 690... again it's up to you find what fits you - budget and ride, ride, ride as much as you can.
