ts pretty cheap and looks repairable. I asked the dude and he said it was running before he took it apart...which im guesing is BS, but its cheap and i think i could put a couple hundred into it and flip it for more.

I don't know anything about these bikes but if anyone does, is this a good idea or good deal?

For 250, prob talk him down a little more too, and if he has title, I'd do it.  No title though, I'd 'lose interest' quicker than he did after he opened it up and couldn't figure out how to put it back together.

I might take it if he offered me 250 to remove it form his property.
