[QUOTE="Casper250, post: 718305, member: 20922"] The above list is a good start. These are some things that i tend to look at for a quick apraisal. First thing is if the bike is clean, like no dirt on it. If the guy was to lazy to clean the bike, who knows what else he didn't do. Plus, the bike should look it's best for selling, you wouldn't buy a car with McDonalds bags on the pasenger floor. Second, I have found that the motor is the last thing to go on a bike. Tires, chain, sprockets and brakes tell a better story of what condition the bike is in. You can get a new piston and rings(2-stroke) for ~$130. To get new tires, chain, sprokets, and brakes can be near $300 depending on what you get. After that, i would go through the list above. [/QUOTE]
