thinking of looking at 02 cr125 (clean 1 owner )
here's the catch.

it was pushed into the garage in 2003 and sat untouched until now.

Gas in tank and carbs. if you kick it -it turns over.

would you pay 1000.00 for this bike?

I'm thinking carb teardown - top end - and fluids.
Is there something i'm missing? could it seize?

Thanks

Not w/ a good cleaning and topend! 1000 is good unless you can get it for less.

Thanks

It would be a good price, I dont know what
type of condition gears or clutch is in without
riding it. there could be more than just gummy carb.

everything else looks great, rims and all

Sounds good for the price. Any pics? There are some issues that need to be addressed being set up for that long yes. But cheap with the manual and if he is strait up and you know him... Snatch it up for the price.

thanks again for all the help.

I believe hes a guy who barely rode the bike,
and just didn't store it properly.he doesn't ride.

he seems to be no bull.
no other mechanical concerns.

i'll consider the advice.
