This is a bike I found. Is it worth 650$? The rear of fenders look odd to me, are they legitimate 250sx fenders? please give me trailprotrailpro opinions. Suppposed runs well but needs a front light bracket. Thanks

I'm no SX expert, but that things looks thrashed then treated to a rattle can resto.

I would not pay $650 for it. Maybe 1/2 that.

I would buy it definetly normally they are at leasr $1000+ around here. It might need a little work but doesnt look like to much

I sorta agree with jb2. It looks like its had a rattlecan resto on the motor, and cosmetically needs some work.
That said, price always depends on location. Me, even though it is an 87, I would talk him down to at least $500.��

They are maier fenders big wheelz. Higdonaw, you will probably find trashed one way bearing s in both the clutch and flywheel. Loose swingarm bearings and a rear end that needs rebuilt...If all of that seems good and tight,,,I doubt it lol. It is worth it. If not, spend accordingly. You are looking at a lot of time and money to repair any of that.

Ok thanks. Ya just confirmed what my gut was telling me so I will pass. I want a 86 or 87. Love the red white and blue! Central Illinois if anyone else is interested. Send me a message. It was a long haul for me, so on the the next prospect. Thanks!

To be clear, the plastic on yours is OE but broke. I/m not saying it's not a good deal. Just a lot that CAN be wrong :)

I will have an 86 SX for sale in about 3 weeks or so. It's in great shape and needs nothing. If interested, let me know, I'm an hour north of you.
