richt Posted May 18, 2013 Report Share Posted May 18, 2013 Have a play on it, see if you like it! Moneywise its good if you don't need to replace the usual consumable parts. You will no doubt throw it at rocks and destroy it, so a cheap one makes sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
butler Posted May 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2013 Montesa uses the Honda lump yes? So reliable? I've got about 1200 set aside for a bike and then have to squeeze some boots in with that. What are shercos like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillipt50044 Posted May 18, 2013 Report Share Posted May 18, 2013 Hi there I would go for the 250 as the early 280 was abit of a handful even for a good rider , as for price if the bike is really nice I would say a £1200 is at the top end , I have just sold my 04 250 gasser for £400 but it was abit tatty.
