The one I bought has 3000 miles on it.
It had been sitting for over a year, so i went with some tools and some fresh gas and a little battery jump starter.

Siphoned out the gas(yummy) and filled her up with the fresh stuff... hooked up the little battery jumper and she cranked for a good 10 sec and then fired up... idled down nice and smooth and ran surprisingly well for sitting for so long... All the fluids were clean, theres no rust in the tank. Never been dropped. The battery wont hold a charge, so I'll pick one up tomorrow and try to get it home to change the fluids and clean it up.

For 3,000 I got the bike, a Shoei TZ-1 helmet and two full sets of gear(summer and bad weather)

Nice gear... easily 1000 dollars in gear and the bike books for 4,000ish
