I'd say if you can get one for less than $5,000 it's a good deal.
Check if it needs tires and/or chain, 'cause it might if it's 3 years old and that's a few hundred extra right away.
As for insurance, State Farm seems to be the best for new riders with smaller displacement. I was quoted around $1,500 for a Suzuki GS500 and $700 for ZZR250, which I ended up buying. Full coverage, I'm over 25 with 2 minor tickets. I'm not so sure about the 650 but then again it's not a SS.
So you shouldn't have to pay more than $2,000 for insurance for a 650, no matter what, unless your record's dirty.
I think a driving record is like credit... Bad record is on the same terms as no record.
Saddly I have no record so probably helps out on the price. But at 23/24 i was quoted at over 2k. So its not that great. State farm cant do me as I do not have a G.
Im gonna look over it first for sure..
