That's how clean my bike was when I bought it 3.5 years ago - it had 16,000 miles and had never been rained on. The previous owner washed it after every ride and put it in his garage - covered. 30,000 miles, one 20 mile an hour crash and multiple drops while stopped later it doesn't look as good

1500 doesn't seem bad if the bike is in great shape. Mileage is lower than the projected KBB accumulated mileage: if the chain is good, rubber is good, and those expensive cowl panels aren't all bashed up in person, offer him something slightly less. I'd probably give him $1400 for it, but that's m
