I was looking at the same bikes as you, but today pulled the trigger on a C50T. I thought it was the best bang for the buck out there. I've only riden in one day, but no complaints so far except the windshield is too low. I'm 6'4" and get a bunch of wind buffeting (sp?) at higher speeds. Good luck with your decision.

Those are all great bikes that would serve you well.

I would figure out how much you can spend and then buy whichever bike you can afford that has the most emotional appeal for you that will meet your needs. Try to be too rational and you may end up with some buyers remorse (I wish I had gotten a red bike, etc).

Honda's in general are the most well rounded bikes. They do everything good!
Price is nice also, and looks are an added bonus! More importantly, sit on them all and get a feel for them. That is probably the most important thing, comfort!
Good Luck, Ride Safe!

Owning the '07 Honda 750C2, with 2600 miles on it has been a great pleasure to ride. The seat was a little hard, but a custom bike shop un-stitched her and put 3x the comfort in on her and then stitched her back up and It's just a blast to ride, good luck!
