I figure I could get it for 700 and put a new top and bottom end in it for about 300 and get a rad bike. I asked for pictures, he replies that he can send some (but doesn't). Then he tells me the title is in his uncles name and is that ok with me?
Sounds legit right? I told him I'd buy it from his uncle then lol
I hate craigs list
go look at it , write down the vin and go to the dmv or a third party title and make sure its not stolen... if its clear then go buy it.
do you REALLLLY care for a title for a 700$ dirtbike ? i highly doubt you plan on flippin a 125 or selling it down the road.
just make a bill of sale signed n dated and go notarize it.
Already told him it wasn't worth the risk. Getting it registered every few years would be a bitch, plus if someone reports it stolen, I'm fucked...
I already made up my mind, I'm just going to put all my money into my 250f, cause once I do, it will be badass! Just sucks I'm anal and want to do everything at once

(Crank/bearings/piston/timingchain/valves/valvesprings/clutch + any tooling/measuring devices I may need as I do all the work myself).
Will be good though, my 06 crf250 was bought used, and I'm pretty sure is still stock, and will be nice to get everything fresh with and hour meter on there so I can keep up on the maintenance schedule. Also, by the time I have to REALLY service it again, I'll be an Engineer making bank!!!! (or at least out of college working full time). Shits gonna be ill when it's done though, already got 800 saved up!
Yeah once I finish that though it will be time for a new helmet, a go pro, new boots...tires....sprockets.....................F*** Motocross! lol
