I guys got a bigred 250. It's been sitting for 3 years he's the orginal owner he wants $500 for it and won't budge. The gas tank looks a little ruff. Does anyone think it's still a good deal.

Buy it. If its all original and only needs the tank redone its a deal.

thats a steal I would get it. around here a running BR runs about $1000.00-$1500.00 depending on shape of the tires, plastic etc:

Anyone else think it's a good deal. He hasn't tried starting it in three years.

That is a good deal. Even if you have to put new tires, a battery, and a gas tank that is still a good deal. What year is it?

Good deal... Snap it up... I bought my 85 BR for 400 and it was a p.o.s. but it ran like a top... Nothing a few hundred dollars will take care of... (fenders, tires, wheels, battery, seat cover, gas tank redone, new bars.... (I might have gotten hosed come to think of it...)
