Default Buying a 600RR Tuesday

Hello guys, i'm new here and just completed my BRC class and got my M license. I am now looking to get a 600RR and found one on craigslist. Its a 2004 Black/Silver 600RR with 12k miles. He is asking 5250 for it, but I think i'm going to offer $4k, $4.5k tops. Is this reasonable??

If it's in great condition, he wont come down. I got mine (same exact bike) for 4500, and it has been down.

I got my 2006 for 5900. And it was dropped once. And with 12K miles on it. Your going to have to do the 12 thousand mile service on it unless he's done it already.

I got my 2003 with 7k miles for $4400, never dropped
for 12k miles if you can get it for 4500 i think would be a good deal

sounds ok,. not phenominal deal but its ok

i however would not recomend you buy an rr as a first bike. check out a 2001 or 2002 f4i or something smaller than a 6 first.... these bikes are very very unforgiving. rr is very aggressive and is NOT a begginer bike.

redcbr~ it can be done, but it is still not a beginner bike. its too aggressive to me and to alot of people i would not go back and get an rr over my old suzuki gs 500f for a million dollars cuz i would prob be dead. you mature alot over your first year of riding, plus who wants to go down on thier brand new rr?? cuz you will go down..

there are riders who have gone down and riders who are going down. nothing else

he is not gonna budge much on that price. Maybe a couple hundred bucks but not a grand noooo waaaayyyyy. RR is a fine beginner bike as long as you dont act stupid and remember the bike owns your soul...
