how do my name grobo I'm a serial destroyer of bike to make into chops.
I used to use a kdx220 for green laning, now I fancy a go again.
don't fancy a four stroke and love Honda, so I'm bought a AR which I found loads of chemical metal on the bottom of the crank cases.
the dealer is a sound bloke and didn't know of the damage & gave me a full refund.
I was gutted as the spin round the block showed I was on the right bike.
so I've bid on a mk3 at sandbach that's on eBay, I've tried to put pics in the eBay section & failed.
wondered what you lads thought?

Hi welcome, we allways advocate buying on condition as opposed to MK, and that certainly does look tip top condition, in the photos, however, the price is also tip top as well, but if that's where the market see's their value :| .

as long as its in good nick I don't mind paying a bit more, there seem a lot of rubbish when you get around the £1000 mark.
my last kdx was a 18 mths old minter for about £2400, I was going off the write up for the mk3.Prices start at around £1000 for a rough worn out example to £2000 for a low mileage minter.
there's a nice ktm450 ( is that a swear word?) for £2000 so i don't want to pay to much or I might as well get a four stroke :(

The rebuilding cost on a fourbanger will bring a tear to your wallet, so choose well.
