Id say its a decent deal. Sportbikes will hold their value alot longer than any dirtbike. If you dont want a dirtbike and would rather have a streetbike, then its a perfect trade for you. Of course, it all depends on the condition of the gsxr. Pictures look decent, but you wont know for sure until you actually drive the bike. But if its decent, I'd put the gsxr worth around 3500 to 4000

Also, a 750 is nice bike. It has great power, but isnt overwhelming.

I would just be careful cause it almost sounds too good to be true. If he could sell it for $3K and buy a 450 for $2K hes making a grand off it and it hes trades hes losing a grand. Lets face it who wants to lose 1000 bucks. I would look the bike over with a magnifying glass. Listen for any knocks or pings in the motor. Make sure everything works well otherwise it can bite you in the butt in the long run.
