Please read all of this and know what your getting into before jumping the gun on buying or offering. Your clicks hold you responsible for follow through. First a little about me: I am in my mid 50's and have been riding and racing since I was 15. I know these two strokes inside and out. Your not buying from some young squid who beat the life out of a bike and never did maintenance. Now about the bike... 1998 KX250 two stroke. This was Dirt Bike Magazine's and MXA Bike of the year in 98. Great low to mid range power. I have it completely set up for Hare Scramble racing. It's great in the woods and for trail riding. It is NOT set up for MX and I wouldn't suggest using it that way without some changes in gearing and suspension. I started this build by completely sandblasting and inspecting the frame for damage or cracks. Then reinforcing the bottom of the frame for strength and those many hits a woods bike gets on bolders and logs. Powder coated in silver. Skid plate installed also. I fine bead blasted the rims which give them a nice look different from everyone else. The rear wheel is 18". The wheels have new bearing installed. The motor was completely redone. It is bored out to a 265 then sent for replating by US Chrome (who doesn't scrimp on their plating thickness). Brand new crank, rod, and bearings by Wisco. Porting professionally done by Boyesen. I extended the clutch arm lever by 1/2" for an easy 'hydraulic like' pull. Installed new VForce3 reeds and the icing on the cake is a APT cast Smart Carb ($400 alone). No jetting to mess with. It's as close to fuel injection as you can get. Runs spot on no matter the temperature or altitude. NO SPOOGE! Mixing at 32:1. The bike is equipped with an FMF Gnarly pipe with aluminum pipe guard. Repacked silencer. Runs nice and crisp. No Bog or hesitation. I installed an 8oz flywheel weight to help in both keeping more traction to the ground with easier starting and less stalling when lugging. Running 52 tooth rear sprocket enables me to climb anything short of Mt Everest (haha). Very easy to bunny hop over any obstacle. The bike has all brand new plastics. A 3 Gallon Clark tank with Acerbis reserve petcock. Oversize double row radiators. High output coil with Icat. Wide pegs, Brand new kick start lever. Guts tall soft seat foam and new ribbed gripper seat cover. Bark busters of course! All new bearing in linkage, swing arm, and steering stem. IMS shifter. I never got around to getting the suspension re-valved. As far as I know it's pretty much stock. All I did was replace the bushings, seals, and fresh oil. I weigh 175lbs and it works ok for me although the forks seem a little hard while the shock seems a little soft. I've Only raced it twice since finished and don't have time to go out riding. I think I could find my sweet spot adjusting the clickers, but like I said, no time right now. The previous owner weighed like 220 I think. The tires are geomax and not new, but not bald, they will get you by for awhile but I suggest putting on a fresh set of your choice. Don't waste your $$ on a $1200 bike that you have to put another $1000 or more into to bring it up to snuff. This bike DOES NOT have a TITLE. You will get a Bill of sale.
