    Seems like a decent deal especially with only 9k miles. Won't be as fast as the newer 600's, but should be fun to play with

    Yea, I think it is slower... I have only driven one bike and it was an SV1000. That was fast!

    Thats a 1000 dollar bike at most. He is asking way too much money. Shop around.

    I personally wouldn't buy it. If you don't have alot to spend, you can get something newer and faster with minor cosmetic damage.

    Figure bro, I bought an '01 GSXR1000 for $4000 two years ago. At the time the bike was untouchable. Needed a little fairing work. Now the bikes are going for even less than that. 600's are way cheaper. Get a wrecked one and save a shit load of cash. If you want some help getting one, let me know.
