You have been given some very good advice already regards projects never being cheap & the steel framed CBR600. Both things I was going to mention!
My "project" FZ750 was very cheap to buy initially but now owes me in excess of £2000 & is still not finished!!! :'( Being a project I don't think they ever are.
The only other thing I will add is that going too old can end up costing more in the long run as certain spares might be hard to obtain. A 2nd hand Micron exhaust system for an FZ750 "without" end can recently fetched £280 on ebay. I would say something between 10-20 years old but no more.
