04' RMK rebuilt engine $1200 good buy?

[kitthaven]

Guy said that cable for mileage was broken but ballpark 5,000mi. Engine was rebuilt two years ago. 159"track. Wants $1200, claims that it "runs great". I've been told RMK's have some problems... pull the trigger or hold out?

cheap sleds are always a crap shoot, heck even newer ones are. your own brother will lie to you! all you can do is look it over as best you can and hope for the best. if things go south at least your only out $1200 and you could probably get a lot of that back parting it out.
