I bough this bike from my old neighbor, it had been totally submerged in two floods. I paid $200 for it...
I got all the water and mud out of the cylinder, drained the water from the case/frame
cleaned carb & jets, new plug and adjusted valves and she fired up.
flushed it with oil about 6 times, and was still coming out watery, so i took some iso-heat and mixed it with oil and did that twice and it got all the water out.
its a XR350r, has a dry dump oil system which is kinda cool i guess...
doesn't smoke, has decent power, once you get in 3rd+ you can really notice the lack of raw power but its fun to poke around on... kinda top heavy...
Not bad for 200 bones. Might try and sell it to buy a water cooled 250r before the rampage
