klmt Posted April 1, 2010 Ok so i have a 2001 xr200 that is not running but was recently and im thinking the head might have been starved of oil and that is why it died, but i have an offer for a trade of my bike and $200 for this 1989 xr250. Is it worth it with this year if the bike is in as good of condition as it seems in the pictures? http://newhaven.craigslist.org/mcy/1642052742.html http://newhaven.craigslist.org/mcy/1637123036.html It is hte same bike in both adds.

RedRider3141 Posted April 2, 2010 If your budget is tight, I think the '89 XR250 is better than the newer XR200. Does the prospective trader know about the oil issue? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
klmt Posted April 2, 2010 Im pretty sure its not a scam. It is a girl and her boyfriend that are buying it because the xr250 is too big for her she said. and ya, my budget is pretty tight considering im a 16 year old kid without a job haha. And, ya the owner knows that it doesnt work. they know as much as i do. Im not 100%sure whats wrong with it cause i havent had time to really take a good look. I mean for all i know, it could be that a piece of dirt clogged the carb from the lack of an inline fuel filter on my bike. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
