Default 400 Ex trade for ‘86 Trx250r

I have a ‘99 400ex with full Big Gun exhaust and K&N air filter. Someone is wanting to trade me a ‘86 Trx250r currently non -running. He put a hole in the case (chain snap) but put whole new cases on it. The engine is currently out of the bike. The cylinder looks to be in perfect condition. I need some help as to decide if I should trade(and have him put the engine back in, trade with engine out, but running, or not trade at all. Anything helps!

I'd say #4 on your list: NOT trade at all. I made a mistake like that many years ago trading a running machine for basically a parts bike and I still regret it to this day..

So then it’s a no go. Someone else is interested in trading for a ‘99 350 Banshee that looks to be in good shape. He said it might need a carb clean, but other than that, he said it runs good. It looks to have an Pro-Circut or FMF slip on and expansion chamber. What do you guys think?

I would also say don't trade. The TRX 250r can rip but first, the guy could be ripping you off and the quad is trashed and two, your 400ex is worth more than a broken 250
