Sadly I sold my 220 a year or so ago..... Regretted it ever since.
Bought and sold a few bikes since then and now I am looking for a KDX200.
There are a few on Craigslist around OHIO but maybe someone here has a lead? I have ~ 1100-1200 to spend. Bike has to have a title....
I am moving to Florida soon and will compete in the Florida Trail Rider HS series. The KDX200 will be perfect for me in the Golden Master division... The "old fart" division.
Spring fever has just hit around here...

Good thing is;
Bikes, especially used ones, are cheap. Even new. I've been easily able to find a brand new dealer 2009 KLR650 for $4500 plus tax and DMV. Out the door for $5033. I can find used 2009's for under $3500. You should be in good shape shopping now.

Comments on this? He sent some closeup pics. Doesn't look trashed?

Looks pretty good. Offer him $800 in cash citing that the bike is 14 years old and the market is crap. $1,000 is probably a fair price though ;).

them old PC pipes all rusted, nothing a wire wheel won't take care of in short order. I kinda like the purple, too....
I think it's more important to check if the bike was well maintained. IE: bearings are good, compression is in spec, etc etc. Surely it's worth a closer look.

Little rain won't hurt it none
My KDX spent most of last winter in the back of my truck
