the wonderful state of massachusetts has a thing called the lemon law if it breaks three times they have to refund you your money! i did it in 1990 when i bought a yamaha rt 180 the thing sh@t the bed three times went to court with the dealer and the next day i was riding a new kx 250 free of charge !! and i did not have to pay the huge price difference between the two ! I GUESS THIS STATE IS GOOD FOR SOMETHING
