New rider - Worth buying 2012 CBR250r (non-ABS) with close to 19000 kilometers on odo?

Hello,

I recently got my M2 license (Ontario motorcycle riding license) and want to buy a new motorcycle. I know very little to nothing about motorcycles. The motorcycle seems to be in a good shape with minor cosmetic scratches and no rust that I could visibly see. It is a non-ABS model but within my budget of ~$2500 CAD.

I was wondering if it is worth buying a 2012 CBR250r in 2021 as a first motorcycle? Would I have to spend a lot in maintenance as it is close to 10 years old? Any thing in particular I should look for before buying?

Thank you :)

Try an get the abs model. Not because of the abs but because it has a six piston calliper with superior stopping power. It saved me from an almost certain collision. (I pulled up with a metre to spare). Bet of luck with your search and remember "ride to live".😁😉
