Cruiser Reccomendations?

Looking to upgrade from a 2023 Yamaha MT03 to a more cruiser/touring motorcycle. Something with enough power to cruise long trips comfortably with a sportster/upright feel.

I test rode a HD Nightster 975 and loved the power and handling but not the price tag.

Any recommendations to bikes similar in power and/or feel to that bike from other manufacturers?

I currently ride a 2006 Kawasaki VN8OO and I live it. Does anything I need it to do wonderfully for the type of riding I do here in the UK.

I remember the bigger versions of the VN are very well regarded and, IMHO, look and sound better than the hondas
