I have my eye now on a used 2014 with 2500 miles for only $2500.

The only thing it will likely need is tires. A 2014 could likely have tires on it that were made in 2012 or 2013 - check the date code on the tires and see how old they really are.

I would install a new set of tires before I did any long distance trips or aggressive riding......or a quick ride home in the rain - but the tires will likely be OK for some careful riding.

Someday I will be old......But not today!
