Hey, /o/. I am purchasing a bike this season and I have a 2000 cbr600 f4 in my sights. I like this bike because it was the same as the first bike I have ever owned and I enjoyed everything about it, including doing my own work on it. I am going to go look at it tomorrow but from the looks of the ad it is pretty g2g. My question is with 13,XXX mi how would you value this bike? KBB gives it about $2350 in excellent but that does not factor in the low mileage for the year. He has it listed for 2700 but I was going to offer 2400. Ideas?

>low mileage for the year

Anything over 10,000 miles is high mileage for a bike.

If it's stock and in excellent condition, I wouldn't pay more than $3,000

If it's modified, I wouldn't buy it.

Go and inspect the bike completely. Bring a mechanic or a friend that knows his way around bikes if you can. Don't just jump in for the low mileage.

They're ridden hard. It's not fucking Corolla driven by grandmothers

Not the guy you replied to, but those CBRs can withstand many miles of punishment if they are maintained correctly.

Honestly $2700 isn't too bad if the bike's in good shape. These bikes' odometers can go well towards 100k miles if maintained properly, like most any modern bike.

I'd be more than willing to drop his asking price on the bike if it looks solid. Obviously check for telltale signs of drops, make sure oil and regular maintenance is on point (no fork oil weeping, brake fluid clear, etc.)

Is the bike you're looking at the one in the photo?

>>14872724
no but thanks for giving the only helpful reply. the pictures for the ad show all sides and from what I could tell there were no signs of it being dropped. it appears that there isnt any physical defects but i guess i will find out. I had a 99 that had around 40k that I did some work on and sold when I moved. and that thing was rode into the ground but still fired up and got you from point a to b quick. I know what to look for but i have never payed over the top kbb value for a vehicle.

No problem man.

Don't be shy about asking the owner to put aside some real time to look the thing over, too.

If you're serious about swooping this one, set aside a good hour and bring tools to take the fairings off, or have him remove them before showing up.
Look it over, and then have him re-mount them for a test ride or whatever.

Good luck with the purchase, anon.

The F4s are notorious for lasting over 100k miles. I suspect mostly because they're relatively comfortable for a sportbike and make good DD
I've seen a cbf600 with half a million kms done
