Honda cbr for my first motorcycle?

I'm looking to buy a 2008 Honda cbr 125. It has 15k miles, in excellent condition. He's charging $1500, is this a good deal?

The price is well below retail ($2,500) for this bike if it is in great condition, so I would say this is a good deal.

Seems a lot for an 6yo bike, but it's a good machine so if in perfect condition I would go for it. Make sure it's been kept in the dry, not outside in all weathers.
