    I agree, that's abut 1/2 price for that bike if it's in good shape otherwise. Could just be a loose connection, but also could be CDI or stator. Even then it's still a good deal.

    No huge prob's typically, but quite a few reports of siezures because POS carb is delivered lean and the original rubber intake boot often leaks. As some others did I used '01 Honda Cr250 gaskets on the boot and reed block. So check that BEFORE RIDING! Many are happy with the stock carb and a JD jet kit. For a real wow moment and a big smile spend some of the money you saved a custom Lectron carb from Kelly at Motosportz :thumbsup:
    Also, check every bolt and fluid, be careful not to over tighten because many strip out easily. When I serviced my forks I found different levels of what looked like different fluid :confused: Also I found top shock mount bearing greased and bottom dry, so check that, linkage and wheels. Also, lube the cables. I didn't realize what sh*t my cables were until I replaced 'em. The list goes on for me, typical old-school, exotic Euro 2t, reminds me of my years on Maico :oldman: (<- Norm :) )
    Just search for wr300 here and get comfortable :cheers:

    Sounds good should I get this bike or a 09 250 with like 20hrs brand new condition for 29 ? I will be racing but I think I'll like the extra torque of the 300 coming off a 450

    How many hours on the 300? Some big diff btwn 09 and 13, especially forks and that bloody Ducati dig ignition. Despite the weak spark mine now starts easy cold, warm and in gear. That was a big milestone for me. Don't know where you are or what you're racing, but can't race HS or GP if your bike won't start.
    I still say, if the 300 isn't ragged, grab it, plan on a carb and maybe a cdi at worst. Still under $2900. You can tune it to scream like a 250 if you want to :rolleyes:

    If there are ignition problems with the 300 that just means you need to put the CR ignition on it! :banana:

    There's at least 1 thread here discussing the details. Not sure what would be needed in your case, maybe just the ignition which is small box connected to the spark plug wire. You can find parts diagrams online that show all the pieces.

    The 300 doesn't look ragged at all actually it looks really nice to be honest has decalworks graphics are the 13s or the 09s better ? And what's the most it could cost if the cdi and ignition were bad ? I will be trail riding and a lot of gncc though I'm not to fast looks like a good bike and how much is a custom carb

    Well, you can't polish a turd, but new graphics helps :lol:
    Which is better is a matter of opinion and depends on your wants and needs. IMO a newer 300 is better for me.
    http://www.motosport.com/dirtbike/oem-parts/husqvarna/2013/wr-300 will give you an idea of prices.
    Carb choices are basically Keihen PWK or Lectron, $325 (IIRC) or $435. I went with the Lectron an love it.
