Looks high to me
I was planning to go look at it today
But a work obligation just changed that so it may be gone before I get a chance its listed for $2600 obo
Which seems good for a 12 RMZ450 in my opinion
Not sure I want a 450 but I figured for that price I could try it for a bit and be able to sell it and get my money back pretty easy if I dont like it .
Also in the pic the forks look low or something almost looks like a stink bug stance to me
The Shop
Like my real number is $2000 I'm digging into bill money if I was t go to $2600
So even stretching a another $500
Isn't possible
To get this one
Since the late 80's and raced in the early 90's
And I have never had Risers lol
I'm not tall
I have Heard of them though ,
As far as posting stuff and asking questions
Isn't this a place to discuss dirt bikes ?
I was asking the opinion of the group
I wouldn't get In Contact with someone selling something if I wasnt thinking about buying it
However I would post stuff in a forum
For the sake of discussion
Sometimes .
I am actually looking to Buy a bike right now
I just recently sold one
So I am Trying to learn as much as possible about as many
Different years etc as I can
Because I cant afford to just choose what year and brand I would most want
I have to go by whatever brand and year happens to be
The right price and condition.
Also I just enjoy talking about dirt bikes
And who better to ask than a core group of people who over the years has had them all and experienced the
Evolution of the sport first hand .
Personally to this day I have Never Ridden a four stroke
I have actually wanted one for a really long
Time but I'm trying to buy one totally based off of what i read vs my own experience.

You're on the right track. Do a little research in here...there are some years that're better than others...but...simply finding a good clean 450 for $2K that you can ride and be happy with...well, like I said: you're on the right track.
Good Luck!
Wanting to try a 4 stroke

Another option would be to use that $2K as a down payment on a new 18 RMZ450 or left over 17 if you can afford a monthly payment.
The dealers are currently giving very good deals on 18 RMZ, KXF 450's in my area. Probably due to summer being around the corner with boats & water crafts coming into season.

And could put $2000 or more down
And make payments
But dont have a high enough credit score
So That isn't an option
So I will just keep looking , I'm sure something will come up
I actually almost bought another 125 yesterday
A 2003 CR just because the deal was too good to pass up
But it sold right away before I had a chance
Great deals go fast
I'm sure yours is worth it , I agree on the 250f being enough
I'm a little leery of a 450
Having Ridden very little over the past decade lol
I feel like they are too easy to go fast on
And can be a handful weight wise
Just from things I've heard and read.
I still haven't done the suspension which is soft
And needs to be freshened up
I Have the 2005 forks that aren't on yet also
But if I cant get 1 that's Decent for $2500 or less
I may buy another 125 , and yeah being on a tight budget sucks I probably shouldn't even be trying to do this
Sport but i am passionate about it ,
I Havent had a brand new bike since 2002
Which i financed and paid off
, Had my 1st child in 2003 so
So that and a few bad decisions pretty much explains why i havent had any more new bikes
