4500 for an 02 with just a couple of mods actually sounds kind of steep. Has it been wrecked, if so how bad, twisted forks, any other portions of the frame damaged, how was it cared for, fluids changed properly, ask those questions.
Then again it has low mileage. Might not be a bad deal.
Side note, there is a mohawk on the helmet, no telling what that bike has been through.

They will sometimes say that and try to get over on you, ask him to bring it to you to have it checked out by 2 bike mechanics, the reason i say 2 is just for another opinion. If hes sketch about that there is probably something wrong with it. If its all good, he will have no problems with this, im just trying to give you as many negative situations as possible to make sure you are very thorough in your bike purchase and you dont get ass fucked.

^^ Good lookin out.
To the OP, don't stop there though, keep looking for the deals before you buy. They are out there, you just have to find them. Visit all the other forums too.
