This one just turned out to be a lil more work then expected.
Nothing wrong with getting a fixxer upper but with a play toy you have to expect the unexpected unless you know the person you are buying from. I have only bought one used offroad toy and it was from someone that we ride with. This guy bought a new offroad bike, rode it for three hours the first afternoon he got it, bought a quad the next weekend and never got back on the bike.....it was four yrs old when I bought it with only three hrs of ride time for half the price of what a brand new one would have cost me.
