99-02 kx250 questions
azdirtrider75:
I bought my 2002 KX250 off craig's list for $1950 and that was almost 2 years ago; it still had the original front and rear tires on it; and was near showroom condition. If you have $3000 to spend don't waist money on a seized or clapped out bike; you can find all sorts of good running 2-strokes for under $3000.

Hi there,
I would also buy a complete bike that has a ruined engine or will not run.
Trying to build a bike from the ground up will be a lot of hassle and there will always be a few parts that you will need from Kawasaki and the cost.
I am in the middle of rebuilding an 87 KX 250 and the seller gave me a box of spares.
Re-building does take time and you just about break even if you are good with spanners.
The satisfaction is priceless however.
The other benfit of rebuilding is that any 2 stroke will need constant maintenance, so at least with rebuilding you know everything is right.
