Ideas for first (reason) motorcycle sought

Hello together, right with the car driver’s license I made my motorcycle driver’s license after as a teenager a 125, but then the car came and unfortunately the money for a own machine was not there and and and and… Long speech, short meaning, now finally a motorcycle should be here! It’s about the fun of the two-wheel drive – I’m not a screwdriver. I say I’m looking for a reliable machine, which is fun to drive. That doesn’t have to be special now be fast, but good handling and good cornering position as well as sufficient power for mountain rides should be then nevertheless 😉 As a rule I will be on the machine alone, but space for Sozia would be important. And it should also be suitable and comfortable for longer tours (possibly back-friendly). Now I have already looked around a bit and have stuck with the Honda NC750X DCT as many places recommended entry-level motorcycle, which I like to test in the near future DCT sounds good, I also like the storage space and also the optics to me. Would you recommend the NC750X to me? Is the performance sufficient? Which other models should I look at in your opinion? In any case, I would like to stay in the four-digit range with accessories (protective clothing, suitcases). A (young) used person would be in principle also in question. Would be very grateful for tips, Markus
