Am I Getting A Good Deal?

[Chaz]

Hello everybody, this is my first post. I was wondering if im getting a good deal on the bike I'm going to pick up later today.

The bike is a 2009 Yellow FZ6R with 17k miles. It has all the upgrades, fender eliminator, flush mounts, marthy viper exhaust w/ db killer, rim tape, zx6r mirrors, and a tank pad.

The bike doesn't have any damage to it and is in perfect condition.

I am expecting to pay $3200. Is this a fair price? Or am I getting screwed.

THANKS!

Seems fair, despite the higher mileage.

Due to the high mileage are their any special things I should look for when inspecting the bike?

Look at all the covers, look at all the gaskets look for oil seepage or leakage.

I know how to check for oil leakage, ill look up a tutorial on how to check the gaskets and covers. Thanks.

$3200 in Taylorsville, ky is probably pretty spot on....look at the forks/fork seals too make sure he wasn't doing tons of wheelies with it...

nada guide says low retail is $3300, average retail is $4400...

KBB says $2635 for trade in and $3855 for retail... You might get them to know $100 or 200 off but that will prob be it.

Sounds like a decent enough deal. Good luck and I hope everything works out for you.

Well guys I got the bike (it is my second bike, i started on a honda rebel which I rode for a little over a year.) and have put about 200 miles on her so far. Heres my only question, why in the world would you need more power like an R6? I find the FZ6R has way more than enough power. I wasn't paying attention just going what I figured was around 80 looked down and was doing 102! Oh well. Maybe one day ill decide i need 130hp, but for now im sooo satisfied.

Congratz on the bike. It's a solid performer when taken care of even moderately, so the mileage shouldn't be a factor.
