I was looking today on Craigslist for a Ninja just to keep track of pricing when one caught my eye. It looks to be a 2008 that sat out and doesn't run. Guy is moving and has it listed for $1000. He lists scrapes on one side of fairing that looks nasty but engine isn't too scuffed. He also lists the battery as dead.
If there is a legit title would it be worth it to get it for about $800 and put a couple hundred in the engine? I have a small engine guy that is cheap and would probably just do things for parts. Or is this a nasty scheme that I should stay away from?
I've been reading your thoughts on starter bikes and this would be ideal to have about $1500 in this bike, ride it for a year or two and then sell it for $2000! Anyway, thanks ahead of time for your thoughts, words of caution, and encouragement!
