Hi, looking to buy my first bike and alot of bikes by me are very expensive. im trying to get something under $3k. the guy is asking $3500 but if i can get it for a couple hundred under $3k i wanted to know if i should go for it. Cosmetically its a 8.5 out of 10. Brand new tires,fork seals chain and sprockets and batt. Would be buying from second owner. Bad part is bike has 35k on it. The current owner said it is much less but the speedo craped out and he bought a used one on ebay because the dealership was wayy to expensive. But who knows if he is lying or not so worst case, it has 35k on it. Can i find a better deal at this price or does it not sound like too bad of a deal?

thanks
