Enjoy it! It's a fun little bike with lots of room for growth.

Here is the only pic of the bike. Not very big or good quality, but gives you an idea. Tires look pretty new from that picture?

Looks new to me, but like you said, not a great pic. I notice is still has the seat strap and chain guard, two things that are almost always immediately removed. So that's a plus.

You're probably being dealt with honestly. If someone had a bike with tons of miles and wanted to cheat the odometer and wind it backwards, they'd be stupid to dial it back so low because it would be obvious that the bike has more wear than 85 miles. I mean, someone might fool you by taking a 10K odo bike and winding it back to maybe 2K. But not 85.

yeah, I agree in case you care. NB is still the one to listen to on this site. He's right about the bike and what could happen. Obviously, this bike was purchased without a test ride. Chances are he bought it, brought it home and didn't like the bike and has probably been trying to sell it since. I think $3200 is a good price. First thing I'd do if I were you is change the oil since it's probably two years old. Break it in however you wish and enjoy your 'new' bike. I still prefer the '06 design in the looks department but the '09 has some nice upgrades and the red is different. I like both bikes and as I've admitted several times, if I knew now what I didn't know when I sold my '06 I wouldn't have sold it. Well, I shouldn't say that, but I did have more fun on the KLX vs. the DRZSM I replaced it with even though the DRZ oozed of power and torque. enjoy.
