What to look for when buying used (2 Stroke)?
I am looking at a 2000 xplorer tomorrow. I was wanting to know what to look for when buying a used 2 stroke. I am not going to be able to take the quad to a shop to test compression, but what can I look for and listen for that will tell me how good a shape the motor is in? It is an Xplorer 400. I like this engine, I used to have a scram 400 and it is the same engine.
Thanks

I would see if the stock piston has been replaced or not. If it hasnt then a rebuild will be in store not too far down the road or else your setting on a time bomb with the stock 400 piston. If it has, then a slight bit of piston rattle or noise will be normal with the wiseco due to increased tolerance.It is the same motor as the scammy had. Good luck,Bubba
