I'm looking to buy a 200x 3 wheeler from a guy but he claims it smokes a lot and sometimes won't start. I have the gasket set from an old 200x that has never been opened. What am I looking at to get this thing running without smoking. I have never torn into a motor so this will all be new to me. I just found a good deal and thought I would check into it. Any help would be appreciated. Also if this is in the wrong section I apologize.

the smoke could be a few things

piston rings
carbon build up on the piston
valves are bad , need adjusted, new seals
jets were bad in my carb n caused it to smoke
