Have you considered a used SV650? They are great bikes and at your size will be easier to ride. You can find them for around 3k and the modification possibilities are endless. They are quite common so parts are cheap too.

SV650 is a sweet ride.

Nothing locally other than a SV1000. I swear, it feels like it is nothing but Harley's, Benelli's and Ninja's and dirtbikes for sale locally. Not really wanting to trailer anything.

Over 200 lbs, liter bike isn't crazy. You'd quickly get used to it. Beefy stump-puller engine is easy to manage.

I hope to never again be hungry enough. Even then, it was training.

My favorite asparagus is patch-to-mouth.

I think the only time I would ever eat asparagus that isn't fresh is pickled. I really hate canned vegetables.

Get a bike that feels too big for you and is at least a half liter. You'll soon wish for it to be taller and longer. They're all too small for us.
The bike for you big guys -

I know what you mean. There are times when my life is seemingly great but I can drive myself crazy trying to plan for the future.
