Since I'm in the market for a newer bike I found this one on EBAY. Price seems GREAT!!! what do you all think about it?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Yamaha-W ... 2309e18daa

THIS IS A VERY NICE USED 2001 YZF 426 WR THAT HAS A STREET LEGAL TITLE. THIS IS A 4 STROKE KICK START MODEL. THE BIKE HAS VERY LOW TIME ON IT. IT IS WELL MAINTAINED. IT HAS CYCRA HAND GUARDS AND DEVOL RADIATOR GUARDS AND IT HAS A SKID PLATE ON IT. THE BIKE NEEDS NOTHING. IT ALSO COMES WITH A SPEEDOMETER. THE TURN SIGNALS ARE NOT OPERATIONAL. THE HEADLIGHT, TAIL LIGHT AND BRAKE LIGHT WORK.THIS BIKE ALSO HAS THE LARGER GAS TANK AND THEY ARE EASIER STARTING THAN THE MOTOCROSS BIKE FOR MORE INFORMATION

The YZF is the motocross bike. I had a 2001 YZF 426, nice MX bike, not sure about a DS but sounds like fun. Mine was a strong reliable bike, but overheated quickly on tight single track. Never had a problem out in the open or on the MX track. As far as starting, the best investment I made was getting the Hot Cams exhaust cam with the automatic decompression. Night and day difference.
