[QUOTE="CZ511, post: 681907, member: 39964"] Buying a used dirt bike can be real tough. Install new plastics, do a good power washing and apply a quick spray of WD-40 and a lot abuse is hidden. Questions I ask and things I look for: Is the seller the original owner? Stored inside or in the shed? (stored in the shed, expect rusted bolts and stuff) Original Parts, plastics, seat cover, grips, bars, chain & sprokets (original parts = an honest amount of time on the bike) Look under the bike and see if the frame is flatted. I don't always care if the bike was raced since some race bikes are maintaned very well and worn items are always replaced. Check out the hardware (nuts and bolts) are they stock and not all rounded. Of course, start it up and see how it runs, but do this last! The sound of the bike and a quick rip up the sellers driveway will sometimes get us all pumped up and we no longer see the leaking fork and shock seals. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
