[QUOTE="Steve Ruddy, post: 930992, member: 61595"] Yes I rode it and was disappointed. This is only the second bike I've looked at. The first was an 89 XL250 that just had a top end rebuild with a different piston to give it better performance. The Honda had instant power that pulled you back from low speed where as the KLX didn't do much when you throttled it. I was wondering where the power was. The bike was used about 40-50 times according to the owner only on his ranch. It has 5600 miles on it. It has been in the barn for the last 5-6 years. His father said he never replaced anything on it. The front shocks need seals. Rear tire had minimal life left at best. The frame had no sratches not even underneath and the brake rotors showed no wear at all. The handle bar plastic was broken and deeply scratched like it had been dropped at some point. I don't know how to check all the bearings so I don't know about that. But I would be interested in learning. I also think I will start carrying my compression tester from now on as well. He is asking $1500 and he said he doesn't really want to sell it and turned down $1200 cash. I think I'll should chalk this one up to the learning process. Any and all info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Steve Ruddy Guerneville CA [/QUOTE]
