It's kinda funny that they didn't check which direction the rear fenders stickers go on.

Ya I talked to the owner. He the second owner, has had it for seven years. The bike has sat for three and he says the piston seized. I told him that I have seen a quad racer start after taking exhaust off and spraying 5w30 all over piston. I even heard that bike ran for 3 more years after. So I guess he did it cuz he got the piston down from TDC. But he says he cant kick it. I told him I bet the crank bearings are bad as I just finished re building mine in my 87. So he was asking for 3200 on ebay, I got him down to 2000 in one day.

BTW, those plastics are Maier, you can see the mounting screws (typical Maier) on the front and sides, plus the forms are a little off, still 2k isn't too bad of a buy for that... would make someone a nice fixer-upper.
