Default good motorcycle for daily driver (cheap)?

I'm cheap, so I'm looking for some cheap transportation, and on that note gas isn't cheap so I don't want to buy much of it, so a motorcycle seems like a champ play for me. problem is I keep finding them for $3000+ for used ones, wtf. anybody have any suggestions on a good cheap motorcycle to drive around on? (I'm talking preferably $1000 and less, I'm cheap)

I'd pimp a scooter, as long as it does at least 50, that's how fast I am required to go in a 35 by personal code.

look at early 80s bikes. they are everywhere and they are very cheap. they're also very ulgy

too bad boost doesn't do anything for top speed. I'll just get an older 80s bike and put a body kit on it so it's faster.
