Trying to buy a motorcycle. 2 bikes close by on Craigslist. Which should I buy? Which is better?

1st for $600 a 2005 Xtreme Montana 250.
"2005 Xtreme Montana 250. See pics. Runs good. Clean, low miles. See pics"
It's a really nice looking bike, I'm just scared it won't last.

Secondly for $700 a 1982 Honda CM250
"Nice beginner bike, easy to ride. Great condition. Runs perfect, starts up easily everytime with electric start.inspected, everything is good and works. A great reliable bike. Only 4800 original miles! Always stored in garage."

If I buy the black one (the 1st bike) I'll have $100 left over but if I buy the one, it might cost me a little gas money to go pick it up. I have an under the table job and don't make much.

It will run and last til you want to sell it.
The other will not. It's Chinese garbage. WTF is a Xtreme Montana?

OH! Sorry never heard of that Chinese POS but do know about the Honda CM 250 so my bet is on the CM. HONDA!

  • I'm trying to decide which bike to get between a 2007 gsxr600 or 2006 CBR600? I've been riding a ninja 250 for about 6 months now and am selling it in the next week or so to get a bigger bike.

Any opinions would be helpfull
  • Accidentally Took out the wrong engine cap in my Motorcycle while trying to drain the Engine Oil? My Motorcycle is a Honda XRM. I was trying to change engine oil but opened a different screw/cap just beside the engine oil drain.A 5 inch long spring and a rod with holes came out, i put it back the way i think it should be, then opened the Drain cap, drained the engine oil and filled it with new oil. But when i start the motorcycle it sounded like there's something loose moving inside the engine. What is the rod and spring that came out? Is it critical?
