so i'm looking for a bike to help with driving duties.
I have zero experience with bike maintainance and dont' know what to ask about when I meet sellers to check out the bike, what should I look for? my preference is late 90's to early 00's 250-650 cc bikes by suzuki, yamaha, or kawasaki. Do any of these have red flags? Trav |

Get a Kawi ninja 250.....and i would suggest not to consider anything else.
check for tire wear oil leaks chain tension rear sprocket (the teeth should not look like a hooked over mountain peak) bent frame has it been down before smooth throttle and clutch movement brake pads and firm brake feel smoothness of motor running and for heaven sakes TAKE AN MSF COURSE |
