I accidentally had one for a while. Really not a bad bike all in all.

miles are a nonissue unless its been stunted. listen at startup/idle for the notorious CCT rattle. fuck it, get the APE tensioner anyhow, its worth it over the stock hydraulic piece of rubbish.

F-series are great bikes, albiet pain in the asses to work on, which you'll be required to do a lot of with any bike thats 18 years old. I allways advise against making large purchases from friends, but in this case, i doubt he's selling it for more than 2k.

thanks for the input guys. i got some more info. it has 33k, hes the second owner, (bought it in 2001). When he bought it he got it a custom yellow/orange paint job, and has quite a few mods to it as well, still no price yet.

My F3 (very similar to the F2) has 42k on it and I take horrible care of it. Still runs like a champ. Only issue I ever had with it (other than fixing it since I bought it wrecked) was the R/R which I replaced with a Ebay $30 GSXR750 R/R and the chain tensioner. both easy fixes.

You'll be fine coming from a SV650 to a F3

The F2 along with the FZR-600 are probably the only 600's that get me a little misty eyed.

Back when i used to ride with folks on a regular basis, it would be me on my GPz-900r and a buddy on an F2.

Good times
