I have an opportunity to buy a 2001 Katana 600. It was never dropped and only has 5100 miles on it. The problem is, it has been standing for a while, so it is burning oil like crazy and the oil is dripping out somewhere. The guy wants $2000 for it. I rode it a while back in March and it ran strong, but it has been sitting since then and that is when the two problems happend.
I am woundering if it is a good price for the bike. Also what are the common places for these bikes to leak oil? If I get it I would do a compression test, sicne I bought one for GS450 and that would narrow donw the prblem if it is the rings or not.
Thanks in advance
