For Sale - Complete Bikes / Opinion on how much to pay

« on: October 02, 2014, 06:30:16 PM »

$2500 isn't bad but try to get down around $2000 if you can it's end of season and most people around here don't have money to buy stuff. Check frame over really well. Most of the frames in PA rust out underneath between a-arms and look for other cracks by foot pegs, motor mounts, check for case damage around sprocket.

Thanks..I will be negotiating this Sunday, if I like what I see.  I have sold a lot of bikes and I would have a hard time turning down 20 hundred dollar bills if I was asking 2500....but that's just me....we will see.

You will have to address that front suspension setup. It has 450 shocks mounted up with a lowering kit.

Thanks Everyone.....you people know your stuff!

I am clueless on 250r's...a newbie.......so my other question would be what would be the problem with the shock set up? Sitting too high?

I figure he has it advertised for 2500, so I may even get him to go 2200-2300. Which would just sweeten the pot, so to speak.

If the port timing was changed just by adding stroke it can be put back closer to standard with a 2mm spacer plate. Some guys just cut the head a little deeper. You really just need to check and see if there were any compensations done. My builder sets up the 4 mils for me so I am of no help on these questions. But there are a few members here who have done it often.

Ok thanks for the advice....any other opinions out there on this quad?

What else would need to be done with the 4 mil crank, in your opinion Pumashine?

Thanks for the quick replies....Like I said...I have owned tons of dirt bikes and I am just looking for a new toy!  I don't want to go into this experience blind, so I figured this would be a great place to start!

Looking to perhaps buy a 250r...ran across this....just curious on how much it is worth with all the work done.

He sent me some better pics.....




Any advice would be appreciated....I have a lot of experience with two stroke bikes, but not quads.
