[QUOTE="JesseR, post: 1868948, member: 5258"] Great question. Kinda dumb on his part... Has he ridden it much this season? The great part about these air cooled motors are the heat really burns off the bad stuff if you use good clean gas. A problem would be quick to see if you do a test ride. If the bike doesn't have solid power through the RPM band or if you experience coughing and spitting, I'd think you are ok. Did it have Oil in the motor all winter? That is more important as it would have helped ensure the seals were solid and won't leak. If I were to buy it, I'd put a 7 day notice on the sale, or have him get the local HD dealership do a full service on the bike. They would help identify any issues. What model is it and how many miles? [/QUOTE]
