yes, its in my mind and i might be getting one this weekend. question is, my friend says it will be a money pit. what kind of maintence does this thing need? please dont say just regular maintence cause i dont really know what basic maintence would be.

this is what im thinking about getting. let me know what you think

thanks
Mike

its only a money pit because you'll WANT to buy stuff for it.

Regular maintenance is changing oil and lubing chain, also clean your filter.

when you go to look at it, check for cracks and leaks, test drive it. Go threw all gears.

Check the frame for welds and stuff.

There might be one or two things you'll have to buy for it but it is worth it IMO.

P.S did you get my PM lol
