2 stroke for $500

antpatterson · 04-10-2012, 08:10 PM

There's a ad on Craigslist for a 99' YZ250 and is in really great shape (look wise) but the engine needs work and comes with a new piston and spare parts. I've already got 4 bikes but debating on if I want to buy this as another bike to have around.

You have my blessing, go ahead and buy it my son.

If it's really a 99 the motor is the same as the 2012. Meaning you will have lots of ebay / classifieds parts to choose from.

i'd be all over that. especially if you can find the newer forks... it'd be an instant 2012.

You can't play golf with one club,!

Depending rebuild wont be that bad.Even if the lower is spent.
Would you be rebuilding it yourself?

How many knives do you have in the kitchen or how many shoes does the SO have
