Default What could I get with this budget?

I am starting to look into ads and am curious how many miles is appropriate if I was investing $4200 into bike and the bike is going to be a GSX-R600. How many miles do you think is acceptable?

If you don't care... you can pick up a bike with a salvage title for next to nothin.

Depending on what you plan on doing... it may not be a bad alternative.
