Javier. Bikes can have low mileage. A lot of people think they want to ride, then try it and decide they don't. The bike goes to the back of the garage, often for years, until clean out time when it's sold.
Yes, gauges can be swapped. My bike's speedometer shows 43K miles, but the bike has 77K. I put in a replacement gauge, that's why. However if the general condition of the bike is as you say, and the motor runs clean with no strange noises, rattles, leaks, or smoking, and the transmission shifts smoothly, even from neutral to 1st and 2nd on the kickstand, it's probably good to go. Also look at the tires for any sign of uneven wear.And pull the dipstick and see the condition of the oil. It should be relatively clean with that mileage. Also, check all electrical devices. Then let the owner ride it around in front of you. Look for wobbles as he rides and listen to the sounds as he accelerates, shifts, and brakes. Check the footpegs too. Do they show wear? That's a sign of higher than indicated mileage. Anyway, sounds like a great deal! These Nighthawks are pretty hard to break. My bet is if you take care of it, change the oil and filter every 3M miles, and keep the battery full, chain adjusted and tires right, you'll have a lot of great years of service from this bike. Let us know what happens.
