Default 93 cbr600 f2, anything special to check for?

Hi! New to the forum and I'm picking up my first cbr on Sunday. 93 model 600 f2 with 44000km.dont know how much that is in miles..
Anything special I should lokk out for when buying it? Carbs was cleaned an tuned fall 2018 and new tires then.
The owner sent me a video of him starting it when cold and it startet easy and sounded good.
Sorry for my English, I'm norwegian

It doesn't come with a service plan but the owner was pretty sure it was the correct mileage. Yes I will test drive it but from the sound on the videos it started easy when cold and was running smoothly. So I'll hope it is as good as it lokks when I show up

Not much to worry about with these bikes. Especially if it runs decent when you get it.
That mileage is nothing to even think twice about. I've seen/currently own a bike with WAY more miles.
There are 2 issues they all seem to have eventually.
The cam chain tensioner - put in a manual one is easy.
And charging problems when the original reg/rec fails - just buy the updated OEM one and you're good.

Nice, you've got those really cool forest cats.

Thanks for the answer! I'll ask about the tensioner, maybe it's done. Yes we have the norwegian skogskatt (forestcat)

Got the bike today runs nice but a tiny rattle from the tensioner so I've ordered that. Anyone got a link for the parts needed for the charging? Charges well now.

The reg/rec is an updated part from Honda = part #31600-MV4-010.
Get it from your dealer or order it from an OEM online supplier.
Just make sure you get a OEM Honda one and not a cheap imitation like they sell on ebay.

New one is at top. Old style is on bottom.
