Now that is a steal! I paid $5,250 for mine in April of 2015, but it was brand new with 0 miles at a dealer. I would have gone for yours if it had been available then.
Nice! I have a '13 which is the same as yours except with a red frame. I like your mods. Personally I hate the way the stock front turns look, but like the LED option you chose. At least it updates the look. I went with Motodynamic LED's to give it the flush mount look.

I have put 130 miles on my 2013 in a year....
That is a great price for an essentially new bike. I would go and take a look. It is only an hour south. Just make sure he is cool with you getting it checked out before you buy it.

Let me guess - Mountain Motorsports? I really hope you check with the guys I suggested above in Seneca, SC. They were awesome to deal with and no tricks.... What we discussed on the phone was exactly what was on the paperwork when I drove up there.
According to the specs I am reading on the manufacturers web sites a 15' CB500F is ~420# and a FZ6R is ~467#. 47# is a decent difference to me even with the power increase.... Understand your reasoning about the fairings. Did you consider the Honda CBR650F? I looked at those last year as...
I bought my leftover 2013 from a dealer in April of 2015 and paid $5,814 OTD. The base price was $5,250 and they added $375 for freight and $189 for doc fees. Yours is a couple of years newer, but I wouldn't pay over $6,500 OTD. I would suggest you call several dealers. I ended up buying my...
