The reason I bought a brand new bike for my first ride was because of the prices in my area. IF one could find a used 300, asking prices were in the range of $4,000 to $6,000. Eg: a used Winter Test was on Craigslist a month before I bought mine for $6,000. I bought mine brand new for $5,331 OTD. The new models without ABS were going for $3,900 plus taxes and all that jazz. It just didn't make sense to me to buy a used bike.
