Thats way too much bike for you to get started on. Even a 600 is way to much, dont want to hurt your feelings by telling you that, but i wont be the only one to tell you that on here.

Dam that sounds to cheap for that bike. Thats a good deal.Why not give the person the extra 400.00. Also if this is your first bike I would get a 600.

+1. the 1000's are to powerful for a first bike. My friend wouldn't listen to me, bought a gixxer 1k and made it 72 miles before he acidentally lifted the front and totaled the bike.

That is an awesome price and worth the full asking price. If you still insist on getting this bike, at LEAST take the MSF (motorcycle safety foundation).

Thanks guys, I was actually looking for a 600 as a first bike but when I saw this deal its really hard to pass up....I already took the course even though I rode bikes in the past...

you'd be really foolish to buy this as your first bike.

buy a OLD 600 or lower cc bike to start then upgrade..

your first car wasnt a forumla 1 but thats what these bikes handle and drive like.. so dont do it

Daym guys I hear what u r saying but this is a great price and the bike is excellent, they guy needs the money bad, maybe I could buy it and trade it in for a 600 later if its too much, I would actually make out pretty well
