well, it was running good but the other day it wouldnt start and he checked it and pinpointd the problem to be the ignition so a new coil and CDI unit are in the mail for it and then he is gonna sell it I think. his kid rode it and wanted it, but after the problem it had right now the guy just wants to ditch it. I know him good enough to where I dont thikn hed sell it to me if he knew something major was gonna go wrong. but I am looking at a 87 KX500 that is over in less than a day and Id have to ship it from ohio but its only at 450 right now. runs but the guy cant start it, he has to give it a pull start, maybe hes just not got to power to kick it over?
