Let the owner pay for the car fax so you can see it before you buy. If you're looking at many different cars to decide what you want this could get expensive unless they have a subscription option that lets you pull as many as you like for cheap. IMO I would go CPO is there's such a thing for motorcycles

Honestly, CarFax is a waste of time in my opinion. I have sold cars to dealerships with clean CarFax's who had been in accidents and repaired. I have also bought my F30 with a "clean" carFax just to find out it had been in an accident and repaired. If it helps with peace of mind, and the seller is willing to pay then by all means. Just don't expect the car to be immaculate if it's CarFax is clean

As I noted, a Viper involved with 3 year court case with Dodge / Mercedes that Company was forced to buy back shows a clean CarFax.

It's just for a peace of mind. Better have it available than not.
