17k on a sport bike is like 150k on a car. Still a good buy.

Not true at all. It all depends on how well they are maintained and if the previous owner(s) really beat on it or not. I kow a guy with a 97 gsx-r 750 with 70000 miles and it drives better than my buddies 2000 gsx-r 600 with 15000 on it. Its all it the maintainance.

yea but on the whole, and as far as value is concerned, bike miles matter more than car miles

I still think thats high mileage, but I went to kelleys blue book and the average expected mileage on a 450-750cc bike from 99 is a little over 19k miles and the retail value is $4950.
