[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 2939581, member: 3099"] I was meaning that it WOULD ACTUALLY run and ride like it's supposed to after the battery and fluids are changed, etc. You know, not have major stuff like a broken gear, piston, stuff like that. There is probably no way for them to know either and they need to assume some risk too and not pawn it all off on you the buyer. If they are going to stick to their guns it needs to be less than half price IMO. I doubt you could get a dealer to replace an engine for that in their service center. Look at it this way, it was probably running when they took it in. Now it sets and deteriorates for 5 years and they want you to gamble on it? I can't stop wondering why they just don't have it cleaned up and serviced and sell it for market value? [/QUOTE]
