price question on an rc51
Since my hawk made me fall in love with twins so much, I am thinking of replacing my second bike with an RC51 (getting my hawk a bf 
)
I found an rc51 that sat on the showroom floor for 2 years. It is an 05 with 6007 miles. No damage. They are asking $6500, but I think it is way too high.
What would be a decent negotiating price? I was thinking somewhere in the $5000 range. Am I thinking too low?
*edit* Blast... I posted in the wrong section... I apologize for that.

hahaha, i did something similar. i had five gixxers from 97-05. saw a hawk for gf for $3200 and bought it. a few months later i bought the rc51 and let the gixxer go.
6000 miles is nothing! 05 is almost as new as you're gonna get. $5000 might be low but i don't know for sure. mine is an 01, 12500kms, paid $5800cad. i consider that a good deal.
what color? that black one is sexy!!!
