should i do this?

that the r6 has a crappy power band . That it has nothing below 7grand. The other makes I named have a more lowend and therefor pull harder.

weird. none of the other 600's i've ever ridden had power down there. you usually have to wait until ~10-10.5k to get moving. it's been like that on every 600 I've ever ridden, and I've been riding/tracking them since I was 17

I think its a sick bike, and it would be nice to own one some day but if I were getting into bikes I'd start off first with something slower like Dave mentioned. Suzuki SV650's look pretty good, and with the gsxr fork they handle a lot better too.

ya i think im prolly gona end up not getting the bike...

1st Gen R6's have weak tranny's, 2nd gear likes to die on them big time.

The low mileage helps, but if its been abused, 2nd gear will be on its way out. If you're really interested in it, tell him to take the bike to a shop of YOUR choice and have a full inspection and test ride performed on the bike.

Unfortunately bikes rarely sell for the BBK value, because financing is so much easier on a new one and its only a few grand more.

Lastly, if you haven't ridden before (and I don't mean riding your buddies dirt bike around the block) I would consider something a bit tamer for your first bike. But at a minimum go take the MSF course and then practice.

If you sold your '7 today, is that exact bike what you would buy with the money?

BTW, I have a '87 TII. She's getting an LT1 after the 1st of the year.

Nice Rx-7. I have an 87 Turbo sitting in my garage that needs a jspec. Know of any good importers?

If you have never ridden before I would skip the 600. Sounds tempting, but a 600 will be a handful for an inexperienced rider.

ya i really want a bike but i think ide rather pick one i want, or get a newer one. and i actually just put in a freshly rebuilt 91 jspec motor in my rx7 its only got a 1000 miles on it. i have a good friend who lives in oakland california who knows where to get jspec motors imported like the one i got. i bought mine from him but i can ask some questions if u want or just go on rx7club.com and ppl will know where u can get a nice jspec motor still running from japan with decent miles, perfect base for a rebuild.
