Honestly if it were me i would hold on and see what else comes up. I paid £9000 for my 2015 ES with 3,300 miles full luggage and it was 8 months old when i got it. They havent really gone up in price so i dont think that is a good deal. If you really want to go for it make them an offer at least £500 less. Its a buyers market at the moment dealers need cash not stock. Think about all the 2020 bikes they have not sold. if you are no doing a px you are in the driving seat here some patience will save you alot of money. I nearly bought one that was a year older non ES with no luggage and 10,000 miles but held on and the ES i bought came up and i got a great deal.
Help comparing two bikes

Damn, that's cheap! A 2020 ES costs euro 19.000 here, thats over 17000 pounds!

True but isn't yours one of the countries that adds a tax equal to 100% of the price on vehicles not made in the country? That essentially doubles what you need to pay for a Japanese bike.I don't want to see how much it is worth in other countries

Yep
30% import tax + 15% extra-zone tax + 10% customs tax + 21% value added tax + 3% statistic rate + freight and internal insurance + seller's profit
and the patenting (registration to circulate) costs 5% of the purchase value

Brand new in the us is 16700(price+freight/assy) + ~1000 of taxes(depends on the state)/fees(tag and registration + service fee), so 17700 USD.I don't want to see how much it is worth in other countries

So, that adds to 29.900, the seller's profit per bike will be 7k USD, almost the cost of a Tenere 700 here in the USA, that is a scam!

That feels expensive. My 2016 ES was loaded with extras like full arrow system, madstad, winglets, hugger, pointless yamaha crash bars and fender extender for £8600. It was 18 months old with 12,000 miles. What extras could you buy with £1400 saving over the 2020?
