Don’t even look at the '08+, cause those people buy that overpriced bike new and have no choice but to “try” to sell them used for a stupid price to make up for what they spend initially, after they discover that trying to look like you ride a 600 on a 250 will fool anyone no matter how loud of an overpriced “exhaust” you have.

Yeah but 2k is out of my price range. When I started looking a few years ago they seemed to be about 500-700 dollars cheaper on average… I’ve looked for the 500s too but I’ve never found one worth buying. I’d even trade the TL, as ugly as it is, for a 250 or 500 if anyone wanted it. Hell the Ohlins on it alone could cover most of the cost of a beat up ninja lol.
