Default First bike

So, I am going to be getting my first bike in a few weeks. I take the MSF course next weekend.

I have narrowed down my interests from reviews to the following:

Vulcan 900
Suzuki C50 or M50 (haven't sat on the S50 yet). Possibly the C90.
Hyosung GV650

I looked at the Yamaha bikes, but all the reviews showed horrible gas milage.

I am looking to have fun with the bike, but the goal is to have it replace my car for my daily commutes and also to take trips on it (I want to travel more, and one of the reasons I don't is cost).

Any suggestions/hints/comments?
