I realize that this may be too broad of a question to ask as there are many variables but I’ll ask anyway and count on your generous nature to forgive the request for advice on such a generality.
If you were shopping for a first track bike what mileage range would you consider a good target? What is generally considered to be “long in the tooth” (read: potentially maintenance and/or repair intensive) for a sportbike. I’m looking at 600s from the big 4 and trying to judge the optimum cost-benifit curve between age and price. As I said, I know there are probably too many factors to accurately answer this question but I was hoping for some general ideas. If I can find the right bike I want to take the plunge this off season (my street bike is not exactly the best option for the track).
Many thanks!
