250-500cc 02 husky wr 250 worth it?

Hey, There's this guy selling me his 2002 wr 250 wich looks good but i have no idea about reliabity of these bikes, and being a 12 year old bike, it makes me doubt about buying it. Does it worth it?

Here are some pics of the bike

Most of the bike (motor, basic chassis geometry) is unchanged from well before 2002 until now. Those forks (Marz Shiver) work well in the woods.

I'd look for the usual used bike stuff (oil leaks, wheel bearings, swingarm/linkage, chain & sprockets, engine noises, etc), but I wouldn't hesitate to buy a 2002 if condition is good and the price is appropriate.

Buy it or I will Very good bike and some argue the best year ever

Have other bikes but just love my 2001. its a woods weapon and screams on top! Very reliable im my opinion as well.

I love my 02. Mine has the last of the true "WR" transmissions and is fantastic with the Lectron carb.

how can you tell they are marz?

sorry just checked specs, it was a stupid question. Im new to this

i have one and is better than my 2007.

If there is any motor rebuild history that would good and if the rest is on good order do not hesitate buy it now

I have recently purchased a 2002 WR360 which is in good condition, the engine had a major overhaul in 2008 but little since so i intend to have it inspected soon, as a blown engine on these would not be good as spares are hard to find.
