Message: [QUOTE="250girl, post: 1321271, member: 82818"] I found this 2000 YZ426F for sale for $1500 and all it needs is new fork seals ($160) and some welding done on the subframe(which my Dad can do himself). The guy who owns it has had all motor work done at a well known bike shop, and bought it from that shop 3 years ago. He said that just after he bought it he got a new head put in ( $2000) and some work done on the electrical system. The bike has had no work, other than regular maintenece since. The guy who owns it has ridden and raced for 22 years and takes very good care of his bikes. He rode it a lot the first year he got it, and for the last 2 years not a lot, becasue he had kids now which is his reason for selling it. It is all stock exept for a "barnett?" racing clutch. He says that it runs great and is really reliable, will start right up no problem (its -3 C here right now) and that I am welcome to come look at and ride it. So, are these bikes good and reliable? I am a 2-stroke person and know nothing about 4-strokes. I consider a 2-stroke that hasn't been rebuilt in 2 years a ticking time bomb, just waiting to sieze. Is it the same with a 4-stroke? Is this bike a good deal? Any opnions and input would be greatly appreciated :nod: Thanks agian, 250girl [/QUOTE]
