newbie girl with MANY questions

Alright so I have very little bike experience, I've ridden quads my entire life though, ridden a fat cat, and rode a Harley a tiny bit. So basically a noob, lol.

But I have the opportunity to buy a 94 ZX9 for $500! It needs a new front plastic, there is a dent in the gas tank, doesn't have 2nd gear, and needs the stock jets put back in it. But it runs good and has a clean clear title.

So basically do you guys think its worth it? And if I do get it, do you think someone will trade me straight across for a smaller bike? I think a 900 is WAY too much for me, I'm thinking up to a 600 would be good.

Would it be easier/cheaper to buy a used tranny and swap rather than buy the gears and rebuild it myself?
Whats the easiest way to get the rust out of the tank (from the dent)
Also, he says it probably needs a new chain and sprockets, how can I tell for sure?


Opinions anyone? Thanks!
