Honestly, I would say just do it. Lifan USA has a good rep, and their build quality is much better than many other offerings out there. Plus I believe they come with a fairly decent warranty as well. They cost more, but you get what you pay for.
Otherwise, I would say look for a good used CBR250 or 300, or if you want a more naked Cafe bike like this, the CB300R can be had in carryovers from 2019 for around $4000, give or take. Which will bring another 10-12hp to the table, and Honda level quality.
Or, a 2 cylinder bike with a bit more power for about the same price, but without the Lifan quality behind it.
