Purchasing another blaster. A friend of mine just got a 89 blaster he wants to sell me for $300. It needs a new carb. Has Pro Circuit exhaust, bottom and top end of motor looks good. Plastics are good. Sound like a good deal or should I jew him down on the price. It doesnt run but should with a new carb or the carb off my blaster. Brakes work, axle is straight frame is straight. Its not stolen he got it as a payment from doing a job for a state trooper. So is $300 resonable for a parts bike. Im pretty sure this thing will run just by getting a carb.

$300 is acceptable.

You can sell the parts for at least that much so you won't have lost anything. If all it needs is a carb and already has a few aftermarket parts, it's a winner!

If a new carburetor doesn't fix the problem, you can still part it.
 
Yeah thanks for the post. That what I thought too. My blaster now needs a new frame, the motor mounts broke, and my fmf silencer fell apart. Figure it would cost more than $300 just to get another frame and descent exhaust ordered. I should have taken a picture of it, Ill try to get a pick up this evening.
