Without knowing what 'type' of bike you want and for what 'type' of riding it's hard to give advice. Touring? Adventure? bit sporty or just laid back cruisy?
Plenty of 2nd hand Triumph bonnie twins will do the cruisy thing. Speaking of under $10,000 I'm rapped with my 390 Adventure and the Husvarna 701. Both were under $10k to buy if that's your taste. The KTM 390 does have cred in that it doesn't look like a small bike, it rips along twisties like a super sport 600 (well downhill anyway!) and it is spot on for gravel roads. And super comfortable.
I'm yet to sample the Husky's weird block tyres on gravel but will do sometime soon.
Happiness is a means of travel, not a destination
