Make the guy take it to a shop and have it hooked up, see what alls wrong with it and sounds like the forks might be bad in the transmission between gears or could be other things as well, trans could be ab to fall apart for all you know. Tell him if he wants to sell it then take it to a shop and have it tuned or just a regular check up let the guys check the oil, and trans fluid, and run a few tests on it and then you can see just how bad/good it is.

thats a pretty good price. as for the other one with 155k, id definetely see what is causing it to run rough before id buy it. check engine light on?

yea that's the firrst thing I looked at was the tuning for the 98 and could fine nothing..its always the first year of a new gen that I hate...

for the one with the 155000 every light seems to be on lol..check engine and low oil

dre2013

iTrader: (7)

low oil? id check the oil, it could just be the sensor. if its low on oil, find out when it was last changed and also where/if its leaking. if it doesnt leak, then dont buy it unless you have the money to replace the motor soon b/c the rings could be shot..
