First-time connie owner here, found a '99 cheap due to low speed right side drop, missing driver footpeg & bracket broken, damaged fairing, loose blinker. Seller had done a lot of the maintenance items recently. I had him drive it around the parking lot to go thru the gears and he dropped it on the left side, braking on some grit right in front of me. Checked it all out and paid him low dollar that he was glad to get. I was planning on making it nekkid anyway so his left side drop made no difference to me really.
