I found a deal that sounds decent. It is a 2009 FZ6 with about 4.2k miles for $4,900 US. Is this a good deal or should i keep looking? I can link to it if wanted. Any advice is great. :don'tknow:
You should take a look at the bike of a fellow forum member: j rok 84 -
But I don't know much about American prices, seems like bikes over there are much more expensive than European ones (or maybe I just mine really cheap :BLAA: )
Anyway, looks like a nice bike.
That's not a bad deal at all, exspecially if its in great shape.
Look inside the gas tank for any rust. If it sat for any lenth of time with a low fuel level, the tank will rust (especially here in Florida) and cause other problems... Looking at the drive chain, the condition of it will give you an idea if its been taken care of (if its got old, built up gunk on it, it probably hasn't been taken care of-count n a new chain and sprockets within 10,000 miles)
Go for a good ride on the bike as well and make sure there's no hiccups in the performance.
If your not very familiar with bikes, it may worth a couple of bucks to hire someone to go over the bike mechanically...
