Hi all!
Im a 250R guy and very active over "there" i ran across this about a hour ago
http://portland.craigslist.org/clc/mcy/804411893.html
Should i buy it?? For god sake the frame and suspension should be worth that ...right??
Im not sure if i would keep it or part it out to help fund my 250R build and treat it like a investment.
I will do my homework here but what should i look for as far as common problems??
Thank you all for the help and insight
Jason

it probably needs alot more than the valves adjusted! and why wouldn't he just bolt the plastic on himself? it's easy and doesn't cost anything, unless he lost the bolts and tophats... the front shocks aren't worth a whole lot and the rear is a good piece but application specific. frame isn't worth that much either, few hundred. if you do buy it you'd be better off selling it as a roller then selling the motor seperate. might make a few hundred that way, but in the long run it might be more trouble than it's worth.

put that cash into your R!

Something else is wrong, stay away from it, too many things don`t make sence with that.

If it is too good to be true, it usually is!!
