Wanting to buy a dirtbike, around the $2000 mark

**Lion** · 5th February 2007, 07:27

I used to have a Yamaha TT250 a couple of years back, and I am wanting to get back into dirt bikes again. I am wanting a 200-250cc 2-stroke bike, no smaller.

I have 1500-2000 to spend.

Does anyone here have a good bike they are wanting to sell?

ME! I got a 96 RM 250, all yours for $2k

I got some spares too

Swingarm
lower linkage
cyclinder
conrod
piston
heaps of gaskets and seals

Plus it's got some pretty new tyres on it, new chan and sprockets, just greased all the linkages and rear wheel bearings,

things it does need

A new piston - will be supplied with the bike
The crank seal - I was going to drop my bike off at spectrum this week for them to fit a new one.

I'm in auckland too and the bike has just had a big overhaul where I painted the frame and got the radiators fixed andand fitted some devol guards.

I'm selling mine to upgrade to a newer bike while I can.
