Did you ask the owner the obvious i.e. has this bike been crashed, written off etc?
If so and he lied, I think you may have recourse to get your money back and be able to sue him/her if they refuse of course it's a pain but the small claims court is your friend here. If it was a dealer/trader they have an obligation to disclose the truth and must sell a bike fit for the road i.e. bent MOT etc so possible room for legal action her too.
I'm not saying all this is fact I'm saying it seams reasonable and worth looking into, good luck let us know how you get on
