I just found a totally stock 250R for 3400. Should I go for it? Or is that too pricey? Its in great shape,and was only rode for about 5 times out of the year.

Thanks.

Depends on year. Although, even a '86 is high. Stick to the $2,000 +/- rang.

PS. My '82 total stock, except top end was done 2 years ago. I am 3rd owner, it was $700 and its in GREAT SHAPE!

You didn't say, so I assumed it was a atc. I just sent my dad a link for a '86 Suzuki 250r quad racer, new tires, pipe, brakes, etc. and new top end for $1700 hope this helps.

the reason that the lt250 is so cheap is that it didn't handle good at all, and the frames bent right in front of the engine(i've seen it happen)

$3400 is not too much for an '86 250R quad if it's in good shape!!
What goodies does it have on it, bone stock or alot of good aftermarket parts?

Totally stock right down to the tires from pipes to the motor.
