Pick a commuter bike..250R, YZF600r, GS500...

I liked the feel of the GS500F but that's just me. I'd upgrade the brakes and suspension a bit but other than that I liked it.

Would you look into the Hyosung or UM 250?

Don't want a Hyosung...I need this to be reliable. lol

Don't really want a scooter because they are too cramped.

2007 YZF600r - My top pick, more expensive, but long run it will probably be the best bike for you, best looking, best riding, more power, more comfort, totally worth the extra $$$

2007 EX500 $2999.00 - A good bike with no major flaws (front brakes could use some work), it will never leave you on the side of the road, 20 year old design, my money would go with the suzuki GS500, but it would be a hard desicion

2010 Kawi 250r - A bike that will last forever, but in the 65+ range it has no balls, for the same price and the same gas mileage you are better off with one of the larger bikes, you might pay more for insurance than you save on gas for a bigger cc engine but its worth it

Fuckin dealer wants 1760 bucks added onto the 2999 price for the GS500. This is only for "setup". Then add in TTL. Not getting that.
