Hi folks, story time, then a couple questions.
Once upon a time, a coworker bought a brand new 2012 Hyabusa.
For a first bike. And he's maybe 5'5".
Is anyone surprised he dropped it during his license exam?
He put it in storage, and never went back. So it has ~300 miles on it, a broken clutch lever and footpeg, and some bodywork scratches. One exhaust can is scratched too. I have pics, all damage looks superficial, but I still need to inspect in person.
He has a lot on his plate, and wants to dump it. He'll sell it to me for $6k.
Now for the questions. I have zero experience with the used Busa market. KBB says the bike is worth ~$9k, but I don't know how well KBB reflects reality.
Would this be worth buying and flipping? How's the Busa Market?
