Right now it's stripped down, antiscipating a minor facelift. I figured the kid that sold it, was scared of it. He only had it for 6 months. It has a very nasty hit, when revved all the way out. I happen to like it. I'm assuming the previous owner turned it loose, found the powerband, and ended the ride with bent bars. Mostly I bought it, 'cause I have a bunch of good spares for it. I didn't forsee it running so good. She run super clean, with almost a perfect plug(mixed @ 32:1). This weekend is going to spent at Walker Valley. I'll know then if I need to swap my other forks & shock. So far the suspension took the rocks & roots abuse, quite well.
