if it was a theft recovery and the insurance company paid out for the bike its 100% gonna be a salvage title. your going to have to fix anything wrong with it and its going to have to pass state inspection before you can get it reg'd.
i agree 2-3K is reasonable

Just remember, the bike will only go as fast as YOU make it. A 600 isn't too bad to start on. Just take it easy. I'd probably buy a 600 to learn on if I were going to buy a bike. It won't get as boring as fast as say a 350 or a 500

14k is like 60k on a car. roughly.
its not hard to work on, but dont get crazy with tightening things down. clutch covers and things use lots of small bolts that dont need gorrilla like torque like people like to do with cars. there is lots of cast aluminum that is easy to break so be careful removing parts also.
600's really arent that fast. there are lots of cars that can smoke them. they are fun for a few months though. the gixxer is like a civic, it seems like everyone has one and they have insane aftermarket support. also, its fuel injected, it better be boosted before june or hotrex with give you herpies
