Found a new 2023 and picking it up tomorrow. It just fits what I want perfectly. SUPER simple, carb, will do 55 mph, wide and low, and is not really that expensive.
We have SO many 1 1/2 lane roads, dirt roads, and gravel roads nearby I can ride for hrs if not days. To get to them I have to jump on a light traffic 55mph road (most cars go about 45mph due to it being rough and not straight for more than 25' at a time) for less than 2 miles. After that most riding will be in the 20-25mph range. We even have some roads where the road goes in and out of the creek for miles so the wide tires will aid my traction in places like this. For example, here is one of the named county maintained roads where I will be riding:
