I was just thinking about getting back on a bike after many years (had a 70 Kawasaki 100 dirt bike) and would like to get a used inexpensive (note inexpensive I do own a 914) street bike. Mostly tooling around town and occationally on the highway. Any suggestions on make and price.

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/agree.gif) Hard to find and somewhat valued but excelent bikes.
Disagree. The Rebel will reach 60MPH but will take you close to 18 Sec to get there! I did my stint as a MSF instructor and these were the predominant fleet bike. Very Low so inseam challenged or female rides could use but SLOW. Todays traffic is fierce if your gonna be in it, ride something that has the power to save your ASS. Remember the addage: if you find your self in trouble, use the throttle! Youll either come out the other side or Crash...but youll solve the problem quickly.
