As a new forum member, and one in the market for his first CBR, I'm looking to purchase a used 600 model no more than 2 or 3 years old and had a couple of questions.

First, who kind of mileage should I be looking for on the bike that it's still in good shape? Do not want anything with too much.

Second, price -- what kind of price range should I be looking in?

Lastly, what are best places to look for used CBRs for sale?

Thanks for helping out a new guy

You can try eBay, but be very careful. Lots of bad stories come from there.

Craigslist has local listings as well.

Welcome to the forum.

 

thanks done. appreciate the advice!

I mean "don" thanks. sorry

 

Ed, I went through cycletrader because I could limit my search radius to within so many miles of my zipcode. I like to be able to look at, start, ride the bike before making the purchase. I got an 02 954 with less than 7k for $5000. I would just be careful aboutbuying anything that you can't put your hands on. www.cycletrader.com

Forgot about cycle trader... that's why I mentioned craigslist. I would never buy anything that wasn't close enough to look at first. Just use them to find local or bikes close enough to look at.
