Good buy? Yay or Nay ?
Just wanted to see what you fella's think.. I am pretty sure I know the answer-- lets find out..
2000 GSX-R 600... 5200 miles... One owner (acquaintence) - rode fairly easy for sport bike terms..
Dropped @ about 5 mph.. Slid on gravel.. I watched it happen.. Stock pipe is scratched, front lower fairing cracked but is being FIXED and rear brake piece broke but replacement already purchased..
For a downed bike-- it looks VERY good in my opinion.. Seems to run well and shifts very smoothly - specially for a Gixxer..
He crahsed his car into a tree and needs to fix it... I can buy it for 3 grand with the fixed plastic and brake piece.. I will have to buy a new pipe (oh no !)..
The rear tire will need to replaced next year -- other than that all is well..
In my head -- this is a steal.. Are you in agreement? The paint scheme is black and blue and it still has the cowl/rear seat (both)..
Give me your opinions.. Thanks all -- Jeff

It didn't hit anything, right? If there's nothing else wrong with the bike (ie, bent forks), then that's a great price. If you don't want it, I'll buy it!
