How the frack is this guy getting into college without even being able to spell correctly when selling something on craigslist? Plus, 46k on the motor is not the same as 20k or even 30k like most of the bikes we all have. If I was going to even think about that bike I'd be looking that thing over from front tire to rear and everything in between. Personally I don't think it's worth $1,500 unless the tires are still in great shape with no sign of rot or squaring and the chain and sprockets are perfect along with regular maintenance records.

RE: Thinking about purchasing an F2
if the bike has been maintained properly even with 46k it can run just as good as you guys with 15-20k. maintainence is key when it comes to bikes. mine has 36k and runs great. ive seen f2's and f1's on ebay with over 50k, there one on ebay right now with 91k but it does have a newer engine in it, but it just goes to show you honda's hold up very well as long as u maintain them.
