Hey all, I found a 2011 YZ250F locally that was in a nasty wreck. Needs subframe, seat cover, bars, tires. 4 hours on top end with receipts. Full Yosh exhaust. But the guy will let it go for $2300. Is done riding and wants it gone. Seems like a great price even with having to put a few hundred into it. What do you guys think? I was gonna get an 09KX250f for $2100 but this seems like the better buy. Thanks

If it looked like this crash was a one type deal, it might be okay. If the bike is in a condition of care that this might happen more often, I would probably pass. In a crash like that there might be some things you find that need replaced that you don't notice or can't see.

That's what I was thinking. Worried other things could be wrong. Well if I decide on it I'll post a before and after pic. Thanks
