The f4i's are a great starter bike or stunt bike lol the fetch good money here as well... but the cbr 600rr's from 03-06 go cheap a nice one can be had for under 4k. Now even 07's can be had for 5k.

My insurance went up 20 bucks a month from my zx6... almost doubble! but ehhh i had ot try a it out before i went to a sport touring caddy.

yeah i almost bought an 05 cbr last summer. guy wanted 4500, offered him 3700 and he wouldnt take it. i told him id have to spend the difference just on a new rear tire, the 16k maintanence, and after a few months later i looked on CL, it had a leaking fork seal. its hard up here in the north to find a decent bike.

mileage isnt really **** on bikes as long as the oils changed regularly and the valves get adjusted around 30-40,000 miles.

the gix brakes are nasty stock, some steel lines does wonders, I had a ton of fade when on the track and the lines fixed that, its definitely pad time tho, so we'll see what some HH pads do. I've also heard our master's are crap too.
