Points to negotiate:

1) Despite that it may have a nice paint job, it is non-standard...neutral to negative value, depending on quality

2) Despite that it may have a nice pipe (MAC), it is non-standard...neutral to negative value. However, if it were a Kerker, it would have positive value

3) Run your hands under each side of the motor to roughly assay where that oil might be coming from...location of the leak may be costly

4) Non-standard seat...neutral to positive value, depending on maker

5) Mileage?

6) Routine maintenance?, e.g. fork seals, wheel bearings, battery

7) US$1500 is not a scary price:)

Good deal on a nice looking bike. Great job getting it for half his asking price. Post some better pics when you get a chance.
