hi im lookin at a 2003 300ex. it runs great and mechanically is in great shape. its been rolled and what not though, basically beat. the plastics are cracked, handlebars a little bent and headlight twisted. i could get it for 1500 cash, possibly less, is this a good deal. also would it be worth it to fix it up quick and sell it, cause thats what i want to do. thanx
also it might need tires.

Sounds like a descent deal! I wouldnt reccomend fixing up a 300ex and selling it though..money just isnt there for a 300ex anymore.

If it was rolled hard , you should make dang sure the frame is okay. A twisted frame can make is steer funny and cause cracks in the gas tank and in engine case. Replacing engine cases cost big bucks to fix. Look it over with a fine tooth comb. Check for cracks in the frame, swingarm and engine. If the engine is leaking oil, I would be sure and pass on the deal. I've never seen an 03 for $1500 but we found an 01 that was mint for that price.

My advice is make a list of everything that is wrong with it and see what it will cost to fix it. It could be cheaper to go buy a new one. On the other hand, you could get lucky.

Best of luck!
