would the fact that the bike you were looking at to buy had 3 owners within 4000 miles of use stop you buying it
what problem could there be with it ?

Nope, when I bought my last bike it had done 3000 miles and had 3 owners over 8 years. All depends on the circumstances, but it wouldn't put me off. Get it checked by a mechanic/knowledgeable friend if you're worried.
