I'm saving up to buy a street bike, I want it to be cheap and reliable and have good mileage etc. that's why I'm considering Honda. this is also going to be my first bike aside from the bicycle I had when I was a kid but that doesn't count. It's also going to be my transportation, not just a toy.

I was thinking about the Honda CBR250R since it's cheap enough and has good mileage. What cheap motorcycle would you get? I want it to be 5000 to 8000 dollars, but I prefer 5K or lower.
