    I picked up my old 450SC for <$1000 with new rubber and a bunch of work done to it just before (and running well, it was supposed to be for the sellers wife but she liked being a passenger). I thought you were getting this thing for a couple hundred. I would definitely save up your money for something else.

    Hey everyone!
    Thanks for talking some sense into me on this one! I've done more research and the price is on the high side (although the bike seems well kept) plus the added costs and time...I'm going to pass...
    I have a way of getting carried away with things like this at times and need to reign myself in. I'm going to stick with a small bike for the moment simply because costs are a factor for me (unfortunately!).
    I figure this'll let me learn at a proper pace, and get more comfortable on a bike before I actually know what it is I want to ride in the long term. If I can score a good Ninja/CBR 250 then I'll stick with that, if not the 125 will just have to do for another season!
