Every dollar you can negotiate off of it is a dollar toward the price of a maintenance manual and tools and tires, and, if it's your first bike, you'll be needing to buy proper riding gear. Winter is coming on, bike prices drop. That's a Springtime price, IMO. Regional stuff, some prices are different. There's a difference between low mileage and documented neglect. Under five hundred miles per year. I suspect most of them were early, then , probably the petcock started goofing up, battery couldn't tolerate the occasional use, If it's running , okay, and by running, I mean, riding ready, the price is okay, but if it's not, then you need to get oil on the cylinder, if it's been parked for a year, If I was dragging one out of the tomb I'd probably even pop the valve covers and squirt some spray can white lithium grease on the cam. Don't let it sit and idle A: Below a thousand RPM B: Sitting on the sidestand. At least block it up some. There is a tub of oil the cam splashes in.
