Default I am new here and looking for advice

I am looking to buy a 1994 Kawasaki Ninja ZX6 it has 20,000miles on it what would be a far price what should I look for when I go look at it?
heres the ad
Ridden daily, so mileage (21,000) will continue to climb. Runs well, has Cobra pipes, after-market mirrors, grips and recent oil & filter. Plastics are typical for the year, scratches and cracks on both sides, with the right side being the worst. Clutch cable mount on engine has been repaired, tank has a dent on each side from contact with the handle bars. Pic shows worst part, darker area is spray paint and bike is dirty as we live on a gravel road. Windshield had some manner of solvent spilled on it so it's stained, all damage and repair done by previous owner, bike has been 100% reliable, has always started for me and remains fully functional. Flush signals, new front tire, rear is at 70%, reupholstered seat and side panels. Bags/luggage NOT included. Other than everything mentioned above, bike is completely turnkey and I would ride it to either coast. Clean and clear title, no test rides without cash in hand. Emails without a phone number will be deleted as spam. As this is my only transportation currently I will only consider a trade for bigger bike.
thanks for any advice

Welcome to KF

With all of the plastics cracked, 20k plus miles? I would not hope for much on this 600. Keep the gal and continue to ride.

Agree^, save your money, Lee. I'll be gracious, here; his bike may be a good beater.
(I've edited my first response....) Save your pennies for a bike you can be proud of.
Welcome to the forums.

Yeah I would say even if it was free, its gonna be a lot to work on, you should look at the KLR 650 bikes. That way you could do some gravel roads and trails too. Dual Sport BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh and welcome to the forums.
