If I buy a used bike privately, should I get it inspected by a mechanic before I buy it?

I plan on requesting a VID for a carfax report before I even view it, but is it excessive to get it inspected? I havent heard of anyone doing this, but once I buy it I cant exactly return it. I could use advice. This will be my first real big purchase , and I dont know much about the paperwork /to do's when buying a vehicle. Thanks
Wow, amazing number of answers in 5 minutes. This is like a record! Heh, thanks guys.

I'll be getting a 500-600 CC sportsbike. Whether its a Ninja, katana, cbr, or some of the others i've looked at, I dont know. I'll be looking at craigslist. I only have about 2.5k to spend and I'm lookin out for a deal.
 
any motor vehicle should be inspected before buying. any seller who has a problem with it must have something to hide, especially if you are paying for it yourself. plus the carfax report is only good up to the day it was issued. what's happened since then.
