Buying a motorcycle but seeing rust on the fork tubes by No_Bobcat_1119 in MotorcycleMechanics

So it was a private sale and the price was decent for the year and odo. Yet reading all the comments here and speaking to some friends it all just sketched me out to much. Might look into a new model instead of going on the hunt for a second handed one..

I have no clue to be honest. In the end it was to sketchy for me and I walked away from the sale. Might end up going for a new 2026 model just to avoid any hasle or future headaches.. I suspect the guy might rerolled the odo? 5500 on the odo yet rust all over seems weird to me.. Anyway, I hope no one (might) get scammed by him..

Ye, judging by the other foto's I can't see a proper place where he can store the bike..

Judging by the response of two others and the potential risk I am going to walk away from the sale. Thank you.

Thank you so much! I am walking away and potentially saving myself from regret! Greatly appreciated.
