[QUOTE="IndyMX, post: 1139890, member: 71057"] I wouldn't do a complete tear down on a less than 2 year old 4 stroke, unless it had been ridden hard by the previous owner, and if he had been lax on the maintenance. Change the fluids out, and go over the bike with an eagle eye.. If you see anything that indicates that there may be something wrong, investigate. If everything looks in order, and doesn't indicate something that the seller didn't tell you, then ride and listen.. If you don't know what to listen for, find someone who you can trust that knows 4 strokes, and let them ride it to see if there are any issues you might not hear or feel. If it passes that test, I'd say leave it alone and ride!! If a 4 Stroke is properly maintained, and not hammered on, they can last a long time. If you let every punk on the block beat the crap out of it and never do basic maintenace, it's gonna be a headache. Make your maintenance routine a part of your ride. I am never done with my ride until the bike is clean and looked over. Makes it much nicer for the next ride, everything that is broken get's fixed and all I need to do is load up and go. [/QUOTE]
