Learner 250 bike - need help choosing

[Freespaceage]

Hey all
I have been offered a Suzuki GSX 250 2004 with 19 500km's and a little fairing damage for $2500. Comes with a brand new WOF. Is this a good choice and a good price?

Depending on the damage (and assuming the running gear is in average condition) i'd say thats a reasonable price. Unless of course its not reg'd...

sounds good check to see if there is any money owing possibly get a bike shop to have a look over it
fairings are easy to repair

Sounds fair

the damage does not look too bad.

the price seems pretty good. are there any service receipts etc available?

when i was looking at my first 250, i was looking at a blue one similar year but it was like 67,000k's. just make sure that the bike is straight and is not hiding some underlying damage from the fall the rider might have had.

also try riding it and see if you actually like it
theres still inline 4's and 2 strokes to consider, if you like to go fast
