Default please help, cbr acquisition

hello, i found a 2002 F4i that i love (the looks, everything).

the problem is that it sort of has a small dent on the frame, here are the pics with the bike:

BikeShop.ro - BURSA de MOTOCICLETE, ACCESORII si ECHIPAMENTE, ROMANIA

and more detailed pics of the dent:

the frame was painted over, in the area of the "dent"


should I buy it?

It's hard to tell from the photos of the dent. Since it doesn't appear to be that significant, I don't think that I'd let it keep me from purchasing the bike. Realize that I'm not there to see it in person, but I say go for it.

it will be about engine alignment ... since alignment it set at the main portion of the frame and it that has not altered the engine support right there .. i would say don't worry about it.

thank you for the replies.

i will try to contact the seller and ask him to send more detailed pictures, but I also think it is only a ding/scratch, nothing to worry about.
