[QUOTE="TexKDX, post: 605899, member: 16276"] I also recommend going to the '00 and later bikes if you have the budget for it. The Showa suspension is a big improvement. Don't get me wrong, any of the current framed bikes (96 and later I believe) are great bikes. Oh on the work done to the bike listed above, trials bikes generally are not hard on chain and sprockets at all. Unless this guy did all the work because he had nothing better to do with his $$, the bike had alot of hours on it to need that work. Keep in mind you don't want to add the cost of this type of work to the value of the bike - it just means the previous owner got the use out of the parts he replaced, therefore with the work done to it the bike is back up to its real value, not value minus the cost of the work that needs done to it. It is not a value plus the parts/work game - always value minus when it needs things fixed. All this being said, if the bike is as good as it says above, 2 grand would be an OK deal for it. Once the bikes are more than a few years old it is all about condition. You gets what you pay for. The bike really has no "value" based on its year being a '98, it is all condition at that point. Significant changes are a different story though. This is what you'd call a "current generation" bike, so you are Ok with that. [/QUOTE]
