My neibore is selling an 01 blaster for 450.. it needs some work but has good tires ran last time he used it and it just needs a good paint job and brakes.. hes had touble starting it before but its always ran.. do u think i should buy.. he said he would probably sell it to me for 400.. good or bad deal

 

make him let you ride it first

 

If its hard to start it probably needs a new top end. I bought one with blown motor and have less than 1200 in it now. Heres my Project Blaster.

 

Ive ridin it before.. i like how it rides its fun.. wats a top end rebuild just new rings and a headgasket

 

damn man 400 bucks ? scoff that baby up and sell it haha. But yeah its probably the top end, hopefully you dont get screwed and it ends up being something totally wrong. but then again 400 bucks ? could always part out at worst.

 

Next time you go over there..Take a compression tester with your..Check the compression..When you put the plug back in..kick it a few times make sure there is no knocking sounds when you kick it over..If it is low on compression..New rings...Pistion...And a bore job..$200.00.....Then you will have $600.00 in the blaster still a good deal...The starting prob can be bad jetting..dirty air filter..Fould plug..It could be a easy fix...Just look it over good..Your looking at it..not us..Its your call...

 

yea i went over and it has good compression we've checked it a couple times in the past.. he hasn't cleaned the air filter since hes gotten it.. and it needs an over tune up.. hes never changed the oil so.. some maintanance by me and it should be good. thanks for the advise

 

Sounds like a good deal
