That's way to much for that bike, you can find a much better deal than that down here in florida.

There's 2 for sale in the for sale section on this site, they probably have 12,000 invested in each one of them. The one your looking at has a stock chassis and will pop up around here for 1500-2000 dollars. My buddy has a one that has been sitting for years, I'll see tomorrow if he is still wanting to sell it.  ;)

I agree with TRX#9. For that price you can get something better. A month or so ago I sold my 250R set up for MX with way more equipment (aftermarket A-Arms, swingarm, beadlocks, 310 motor, etc.) to name a few for much less, my loss, somebodyelse gain. I think there are a couple of 250R on this forum that have great equipment and they look good. Just take a look at the sales section.  ;D

I just brought this bike home today. All I have to say is I stole it. For a few dollars more I got extra set of plastics, big bore kit with pipe, extra air filter, 3 sets of tires and wheels and the list goes on. The guy I got it from was the most detail oriented person I have ever seen. I feel like I got a heck of deal.....
