Guys, what do you think? Possible 1999 EC or XC 250 Purchase. Pics attached.
Looking an inexpensive enduro to take down some nasty trails and climbs/descents. I'm worried if this is tuned to be a true enduro or is more wide open cross country. Hard to tell if it's an EC or XC. You can see in pics.
I would appreciate input from you guys if you think it is worth getting.
Pros (as told to me, haven't seen it yet. 1 hr away)
Starts first or second kick
Runs great
Says is really clean esp for year. Says cleaner than most 5 year old bikes
Comes with an extra black seat, steering stabilzer, rear fender with tailight (not a stock fender though) and two repaired shrouds with graphics
Cons
Would prefer a 300 as I do slower technical riding. Worried if it will lug though he says it's good slow
No kickstand, just bracket
No headlight. Says lighting coil is there but not sure works
No handguards (easily fixed)
I can get it with the extra parts for $700.
Thoughts? Pics attached including VIN which looks like it's XC but stamp says EC. Help on that would be appreciated too.
Thanks!
