Default 98' 900RR 20K on it for $4600?

A friend of mine wants to sell his 900RR its yellow, had a ding on the tail about 1" x 1". in need of a new rear tire, runs GREAT! trans is good too. hes asking 4600 because that's how much he still owes on it. I use to have a 900 that i loved but the more i look at this bike the more I feel unsure if i want a 900RR at all. I'm really thinking about getting a F4 or something similar and perhaps trying to hone my riding skills. not to mention is memory serves me correctly, 4600 is a bit high.

I use the 10% rule of thumb. Drop 10% from it's value every year. Assuming the bike is in mint condition and averaged 3500 miles a year.

Where did I get this? I made it.

1998 - $9000.00 (I have no idea how much the bike was back then)
1999 - $8100.00
2000 - $7290.00
2001 - $6561.00
2002 - $5904.90
2003 - $5314.41
2004 - $4782.97
2005 - $4304.61
2006 - $3874.15

Wait long enough and it'll be free.
Ofcourse this isn't an exact science but I also assume that the maximum life expectancy of a bike is roughly 10 years.
