Before you go buying a british bike... Last year I was going to get a Triumph Thruxton until I watched a series called Greatest Ever Motorcycles.
I found a good mechanic and a guy that had a 72 CB750 under a tarp in his garage. I paid $1000 for the bike and $3000 for a basic restoration. Alternately you can probably find one in ready to go condition.
They were over engineered for the time and you can get about 100k out of the engine before you have to rebuild it. It's easy to find them with less than 30k on them.
They're super easy to turn into cafe racers.
The best ones are from 69-76.
