Actually that does look clean, but a 60k bike will need an engine rebuild real soon, and new shocks right now. CBF500s seem really pricey for what they are - I guess because of the training market.
Totally agree with that, I don't understand why CBFs are so expensive.
Sparky, if the idea is to get a not too powerful bike for the two first years, I would personally spend a lot less. You find "decent" cheap / learner bikes for around £500 / £600 (Suzuki 500GSE)... Relatively bombproof, you are not stress about scratching it, or parking it anywhere. Then when you are ready to get something bigger, then it will be the time to spend more.
