its a 92 or 91 if those are the original forks........paddle tire says he is a dune rider which means there is always the possibility that this machine was tortured and neglected......Sure does come with alot of goodies that could net you more than he is asking if you part it out.  Don't wanna sound negative but if you are gonna drive a distance to buy it I want you to consider these things.  Good luck. :wink:

he didnt say alot about it.. said he has had it since he was 16.. and it doesnt have the team green clutch cover, but said it has a hinson basket and pressure plate.. he said he has dont the top end before, and is coming with a new hot rods crank and rod kit...

honestly i just like the tank wheels and pipe on the bike... ima change some of the stuff on it, if it ends up needing any motor work i was gonna see if you could help me on it..
 also its a 91... he said it is really nice, guess we will see soon... im getting it for $2300
