Newb to the bike world.

 

 

Went to the pony last night to look at there used section of bikes.

 

I want a 600 to start out on, I came across this R6 http://www.yamahaofcolumbus.com/pages/preownedvehicles/viewvehicledetail/29/31/1/1/24517/2004_yamaha_r6.aspx

 

Thoughts on mileage/price I have no idea what to look for while looking at a bike so if you guy's could give me a few pointers on the two wheel world I would be greatly appreciated

 

 

 

Thanks,

Mark

mileage is average. Price is a little high, NADA puts it around 3,700.

 

Some things too look at when buying a used bike, Tires, brakes, chain, sprockets, clutch adjustment (I.E. little adjustment usually means it will need replaced soon).

To put it into perspective, I sold my 2005 ZX10 with 12K miles for $4500. KBB was $5700. Nobody is buying bikes right now.

 

KBB has the retail price of that R6 at $4785. I'd offer them $4k out the door tops.

 

Other than that, there are much better deals to be had out there:
