[QUOTE="John S, post: 960921, member: 28890"] I went and looked at a 2003 FJR with 185k miles. It looked really good, started up from cold instantly, doesn't smoke, no fluid leaks. It has some minor scratches on the fairing where it looks like it fell over at one point. Zero farkles, so I'll need to at least add auxillary lights and heated grips, but other than that it looks decent. I didn't get to ride it because the weather is really crummy right now, so I don't have a good feel for how worn out it feels, but... What do I need to look out for? What about pricing? kbb says 5k, initial asking price (it's at a dealer) is $3600. I'm thinking more like $2500 because of the miles. Although it has good brakes and tires, so presumably I could just start riding it without doing a refurb work. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
