friend of mine bought a honda mt250 2 stroke enduro for $150 'running an riding' with title he managed to test ride it but it revved high...

i pulled the carb apart, and everything was sooo tarnished it was black, the pilot and main were plugged,
i pulled the tank and it took 4 gallons of fresh gas to flush out all the rust!!! , the petcock was plugged tight, so i pulled it apart and cleane dit out, put ti back together and it leaked, so a trip to autozone for a o ring and no leak!!!


got it all together, and wham!! first kick fired up, luggeda few times than smoothed out, warmed it up, took a few passes down the road, runs and rides nice now, got her cleared out, rolled into the throttle in 1st and lifted the front tire, same thing in second, pulled back into the driveway, at about a half a mile an hour snapped the clutch and roosted gravel all the way up the driveway!!


soo 2 hours of work, and 10 min of fun made me $20 I:I gotta love making money doing something you enjoy doing

Even if he put a few hundred into it and got a nice bike, it'd be like $500 total. Still good!
