The trouble with buying from dealers is you are going to pay top dollar for a bike fresh in from Japan with no history and tarted up for the minimum outlay and maximum profit. This isnt a dig at the dealers selling the bikes just the reality of the situation.

In my opinion you are much better off buying privately but you need to be patient as they do not come up very often especially SP's but they do turn up for sale, just keep searching and get in quick when you find one.
