I have a 1978 CX500 81000 miles, I dont ride it as much as I once did but it's still fun. The CX650 might be a good one, dont know the price though. Then there is the Kaw EN450/500 they are out there CHEAP it's possibly the most underrated bike ever. I have a nice EX500 but good ones are a bit more than $1500. How about a Honda Ascot single "floats like a butterfly stings like a moth"

I loved my underpowered FT500 Ascot. However, I cannot
recommend it as a super durable bike. The motor is
bulletproof, but the thumper version of the Ascot is
known to have starter and brake caliper problems.

Funny this topic should come up now. A friend of mine gave me one during our 'doohickey' party last spring. I just installed it this past w/e.
He cut it out of a piece that he'd gotten from Rider Wearhouse. Since he also cut pieces out for his KLR, V-Strom, another KLR, and mine, he probably got the larger sheet.
So far so good.

That's the other place I've seen it:
http://www.dual-star.com/index2/Equipment/Liteguard.htm
20-01037 LITEGUARD - KAWASAKI KLR/KLX '84-'04 $12.95 EACH
Though the Aerostich deal seems a bit better. I just measured the
KLR light and it's about 6x4.5 so for about $6 more you
can probably get at least four of em out of a 12x12 sheet.
