$2K? That ain't bad. Assuming it has no obvious turds in its punchbowl; it's a Honda...'nuff said. 30k is broken in and not much more. Put 20,000 miles on it and sell it for $1700. My old Hurricane (That's a CBR F1 for you young'ens out there) is still today a much better bike than I will ever be a rider.

The entire CBR lineup is nothing but good, honest machinery. Japanese engineering at its finest. Hook up onto a CBR-specific web forum...there's lots of knowledge to be had on this line.
