Honda Nighthawk250 Questions?

I own a 2006 Honda Rebel. The Honda Rebel and Honda Nighthawk 250 have the same exact engine. According to the owners manuel it has a service life of 50,000 miles. I have 22,000 on mine. The Nighthawk has a smaller rear wheel sproket. But, other than style it is very similar to a honda rebel. This makes parts very cheap. The bike does not come with an oil filter which is probably why it has a service life of only 50,000 miles. Entry level bikes do hold their value. 11,000 miles is not much. Just be sure to change the oil every 3,000 miles. It takes 10W40. I use a synthetic oil but really any oin will do. I would offer $1100 and go from there. It is a good beginers bike for several reasons. The engine produces strong low to mid range for a 250. This makes it easier to learn the clutch and shifting. If you lay it down the blinkers are over designed and probably won't be damaged. But, if they are damaged they are cheap to replace. Front Brakes only cost $22.00 and rear brakes were $18. It is not a good bike for the highway. You will get about 50 mpg on the highway. But around town you should get around 80-90 mpg, depending on how you ride. It starts reliably. If you were to pay the full price you could sell it again in 2 years for $1100. That would only cost you $300 a year to learn to ride and decide what bike you want next. The nighthawk has a taller seat than the rebel. If you don't fit on the bike then look for a Rebel. The rebel started production in 1984 and has remained unchanged since.
