Default 300 miles a steal or not?

i looked up on the kelly blue book website and it told me for an excelent condition a used 2007 500R would normaly cost $2285. the dealer i talked to has a bike with 300 miles on it an said he would sell it to me for $4500 with 7.1% APR.... he said my payments would be $79/month for 24 months.

what do you guys think? im not too crazy about the silver color for this year, nor the yello.... but i can alsway repaint it if i wanted.... but brand new.... the girl who had it before took it back cause she said she couldnt handle it. i was thinking about putting down $500 to bring it down to 4000.... and work up the money till i meet the pay off....

also what is full coverage like on a 500R? like average wise.... im hoping i can aford it.... im almost 20 years old, so i know age playes a factor with insurance.

it doesn't sound to good to me if you take 79 times 24 it's only 1896 dollars. I'm pretty sure then they will jack up the rate and the payment after the 24 months. it must be the kawi card thing. you have to watch out for that. Now if you could afford $190 a month then you'll have it payed off in 2 years. Just something to think about.

youve got a point there.... ive decided against it a few hours ago.... a friend of mine knows a guy selling his 1994 ninja 500R for 800.... only 10-11000 miles on it.... im waiting to hear the conditions of the bike.... but for 800 that doesnt sound to bad. i need to find transportation so i can get a job and help my dad before we lose this house and everything else. absolutly nothng is going right for us right now.
