Worth a look (2012 Ninja 250 $2000 no fairings)
Friend was browsing craigslist and stumbled upon this. Worth a look to see if the frame is straight and no structural damage to wheels, engine, etc. If it is, throw a set of $500 ebay fairings and you've got yourself a nice bike for cheap.

something seems a little off about it, but not that it's a bad deal, just caution should be used... someone who has owned the bike for only a few months, and is selling it because a 'friend' dropped it, isn't going to want to take that kind of loss.
Only way I think the frame might not be damaged, is he crashed it himself, and is too ashamed to admit it. Otherwise, I know if a friend of mine dropped the bike and scratched my fairings, he'd be fixing/replacing them. |

Is it common to let other ppl ride your bike ? I can't think of anyone other than my wife that I'd let ride my bikes and only then because my insurance covers us both.
Was just wondering cos I read alot of mishaps that happen when friends ride other friends bikes. |

Little suspicious how there isn't even one picture of the left side since that's the side that got damaged.

Yeah, ditto on the left side comment. Im betting the entire left side of that bike is mangled beyond belief. Considering that he turned on the headlight to obscure the damage to the missing windshield and front fairing....that thing is probably only suited for a part out.

So close.. Yet so far.. Ehh, not worth it. If it were 500 dollars, it'd be more worth considering.
