another option might be the cb500x. RideApart.com raves about the bike. I considered it before I got my NC. I wanted a lighter motorcycle with antilock and fuel injection that could take light offload. I went with the NC, but almost got the CB.
Nice looking bike. I wasn't aware of the CB500x. As yet another aside, my personal dream bike is the CB1100. One of my alltime favs that I owned was a bought-brand-new in 1980 CB750F SuperSport. Wish I still had that one.
Only thing with the 500X is that since it's a newer bike, it's going to be probably impossible to find one under $5k. Not a deal-breaker, but it IS a consideration. I'll look into it, though.
