Cb500x is an excellent suggestion. As is the older counterpart, think it's a cb600? Around 2007-2012 sort of age, and some fairings, pillion works OK on it, comfy for long distance and they are in a low state of tune, so healthy on fuel and last forever. Mate bought a 2009 with about 85k on it and rides impeccable
I do think it might be a bit of a jump too to hop straight on a 600. I'm 25 yeah.
I probably should have been clearer with what I'd use it for which may have helped. It'd live with me in London but I'd continue to cycle commute. It'd be for weekend rides, going to the girlfriends parents in Sussex and occasionally blasting up home to Shropshire on the motorway approx 3 hours ride/drive
Edit: Often with the other half on the back
