Am I getting ripped off?

is it just me or does the rear wheel look like its at an odd angle.
 
$3000 is too much IMHO
 
The bike has a swingarm spool on the left but not on the right.

See if there is any crash damage.

$3000 doesn't seem tooooooo high but i'd look at the bike very closely. Like Turbo said, why are there no decals? Suspicious.

I would agree IMO, 11 year old bike. I wouldn't pay more than 2200 if there was no crash and the bike was in good condition, with decals off not likely
 
Kelly blue book pegs it at $2360 US in excellent condition. Canadian used prices strike again.

The picture was shot with an ultra wide angle lens, it seems. It makes the whole bike seem bent like a boomerang.

It has spools on both sides. The stand is under the swingarm, not the stand, on the right side. Whoever put it up for the shots was sloppy.
 
unless it's the camera lens....that bike looks bent! take someone with you, that knows that bike,check everything.
 
From what I can see, there seems to be obvious crash damage on the left engine cover. Look it over well.
 
$3000 sounds like a fair price for the Ontario market, you're unlikely to find one cheaper locally. As has been mentioned, look it over carefully for crash damage, left engine cover looks damaged, and fairings without decals usually mean repainted. Also it has a brand new plate on the back, I'm always wary whenever someone flips a vehicle quickly.
 
I'd say fair but only if it really is how he is describing it. Seems a little fishy with the stickers and powdercoated rims... Most people who do that stuff are doing it to hide something.
 
A 600cc ninja has great insurance rates? Great starter bike....

I don't know where to stop shaking my head. Me thinks buddy bought it, rode it down the street without insurance and crashed. Now selling it.

Definitely has been crashed. Turbo already noted the lack of decals, on the front fairing.
 
The seller is responsible for providing the UVIP at request so make sure they do so. If they don’t its just laziness.
 
Spend some extra cash and get a better bike. It's still winter, so save your pennies. You'll be glad you did!
