Default Got my 2013 EC250 on friday!

Hi all,

All being well I am buying a 2013 EC250 on Friday, pic below, everyone loves a pic!!!!

I know Diggs from this forum we have ridden together a few times. I came here looking for buying advice and hopefully the bikes good so I will be around for a while. So, any buying advice for a 2013 and any suggestions to what I should check apart from the usual dirt bike stuff to help work out if the 645 miles on the clock are correct?

Cheers.

Sharp looking bike! I like the red plastic. Find some hardened washers and bolt for the kickstand and red locktite it. Remove the kickstart bolt and red locktite it. Apply silicone sealant to the back side of the radiator shrouds were they are attatched together. I just put a thick glob of it over the screws and clips to keep them from coming off. Remove the chain guide bracket bolts and red locktite them.[the two that hold it to the swingarm] I remove all the little screws on the rear end and blue locktite them. That's about it. They are a nice bike I think you will be happy. If it hasn't been jetted yet you will have to do that. They have a really rich slide needle in them from the factory.
