That one he posted that is in Richmond, the guy is really nice, and is firm on his price. However that ruckus is having some kind of running issue that that guy is trying to figure out. I was supposed to go look at it this weekend, but if zack is selling his, i may just pick it up.

I pm'd zack and he said he wants to get rid of it because he could use the extra money. I am supposed to go look at it this weekend, since he isn't free until then.
Thanks JT, I appreciate the info. I'm ready to buy one this week. I'd prefer one that is not having any problems right off the bat.

If it has problems then it should be no more than $1,500 period. Aslong as it doesnt have any engine noise like knocking or something that doesnt really sound right.

What can cause "loss of performance"
-Over filled Oil & Gear oil
-replace the belt
-replace the variator
-Clean the Carbs
-Replace the Spark plug

Simple things^ most idiots over fill their oil and gear oil then they Freak the fuck out because it got slower and it doesnt run right.
