I'm not a Honda man and have seen the bike. If I was after one to restore etc I would have paid that ! Same seller has. 78 cr250 also. I would suggest slightly worse condition but still a good bike.

Cost all depends on what you want in a bike.

I always look at the wheels as a guide as to the amount of work the bike has done and as a ruff guide as to what the rest of the bike will be like.

That bike has done a bit of work but not a lot in the last ten years so would be a good starting point.

Any (most) bikes out of the states will be better than this one and have been sitting around for some time.

The Evo market (for 250's) has soften and you will get a good bike for not a lot of money. You will still pay a lot of money for a great bike and specially one with Fox shocks and alike (I am only speaking Honda here boys).

The amount of these Honda's sold in Australia would be in the 100's so that is why finding a good one is hard but the amount sold in the states (target market) would have been 10's of thousands so finding a good one is really not that hard, on top of this the Yanks are still in pain and need to dough so bikes are still gong cheap. Safe to say if DDR are selling one for 4K they are still making good coin on it.
