Thumbs down Help 1986 suzuki 230lt

Have had this 4wheeler for 2 years was amazing when It was running very fast and powerful and super light unfortunately last thanksgiving my chain popped off putting a whole in the case I replaced the case and rebuilt the carb just don't think I did it right and now won't start I don't have the time or money to mess with it could be a good deer lease quad or beginner it is a 6 speed manual clutch kick start and has all around good plastics no cracks and tires asking what I got into it $400 Obo or would trade for a utility atv needing a little work

This guy placed this add and i want to but it and sell it. It doesnt run but for 300 i think i can fix it and sell it. Is it worth it? And what do you think is wrong

I wouldn't. $150-$200 just for a new mag cover. And if the chain popped off, it has bad swingarm bearings. Needs new chain and sprockets. And who knows what's wrong with the engine since the guy doesn't even know its a 5 speed, not 6.

Buy it if you want to fix it and ride it, not to make money. You'll break even at best.
