    FYI the plastic is a lot blacker in color than the pics show. The gargage wasnt lit up real good and the flash made everything look real bright. THe rear rack is tweaked a bit.

    It does look pretty nice.... maybe 450... max 500. Not rusty and if it he can prove some dealer receipts, definitely!

    Underneath the dirt I see a beautiful 225. It's really not bad at all!

    My 225 was way dirtier then that and with some work it clean up really nice. Yours (if you buy it) should be much easier then mine.

    Amazing what dirt can do to the value of a machine! Clean that thing up real good and the value will jump up a few 100 bucks I bet!

    Doesn't look to bad at all Clay. I'd get it as long as the price is right. All it needs is a good cleaning..

    Here is a fairly nice one on ebay. Be interesting to see what it goes for.

    I'd jump on that for sure!

    That will clean up real nice and then it could be a beater so you dont have to beat on your mint 250es.

    I say get it!
