advice? 200x frame and parts

[jakerush]

Hey People,

been looking for a 200x frame to sink my 200s motor into. I ran across one but it's been semi-parted out.

It has:
frame
swingarm
shock
forks
front rim
handles
headlight
front brake rotor and caliper
rear rotor
rear sprocket
looks like it has all electrics


It does NOT have:
rear caliper
brake resevoir
rear rims, tires, hubs
seat
fenders(front or rear)
rear light
gas tank.

The guy offered to sell it to me for $125
I think I'm gonna see if he'll take 100.

Am I wasting my money?

As always, any help would be greatly appreciated as I have to decide by tomorrow.

no thats a good price for it you could part what you have there out for alot more then what you are going to pay for it

$150-$200 is a fair price for what you're getting, and the person that has it probably knows that. Don't insult their intelect too much by offering such a low-ball bid. And by the way, I have a tank (without petcock valve) that I would let go for $30 plus shipping. If I can find the fins that go on it, I'll throw those in. I also have a seat pan that needs bolts replaced (no foam or cover) that I'll throw in too.

Oops,

I may have insulted him. I offered him 65 and he took it. It's in the back of my truck right now.



HA Ha. No, I did offer him 100 and he seemed fine with it. It definitely won't win a beauty contest but I'm pretty glad to get it.

I might be interested in the tank. I'll shoot you a line when I get my "okay, you can have more money for your 3 wheeler" budget. She's definitely got potential. I'll keep you guys posted.

Thanks for your opinions

check on ebay. 83-85 200x parts go kind of cheap on there. you should be able to get the part you need for around $200 to $300 on there. it should be a fun bike when your done.
