Hello.
I am finally financially in a place that I can buy a proper bike.
I am in my early 30s and rode some basic 100cc or less hondas and yamahas when I was young.

I really would like to buy a used bike here in South Korea and was hoping to get suggestions from you guys.

I had driven friend's Honda CB 400 a few times a few years ago. So I know the seat height for that bike in stock is suitable for me. I was only looking at CB400 but felt that as it will only be my weekend driver, I would like to buy something more 'fun'.

I would buy the bike used and would like to only look at bikes which would be somewhat reasonable for a person of my height.
Also relying on the modifying the ride height after purchase isn't really an option as the language barrier here is huge. Plus if I can't ride the bike, I can't really bring it back from the seller to my place.

So please help. Thanks.

You'd be able to ride virtually an bike. It'll be when you stop that the problem will arise.
