Most groups don't have a prerequisite that the motorcycle be a Harley, therefore, a decent, used motorcycle in the 750cc to 1100 CC range of Japanese manufacture can be purchased in the 2-4 K and above price range. A number of these motorcycles have an excellent reputation and are very reliable as well. At this engine size, they can cruise the interstates at highway speeds comfortably.

I would have mentioned the vintage Triumph Tiger or Trident but these excellent motorcycles are relatively scarce and pricey as of late and newer versions are not as comfortable on long rides. They are more like sport bikes today.
