Used bikes that you buy from a stranger will typically be money pits, untill you get them sorted out. I paid $1000 for my 01 CR250 and Im probably another $800 into it.  New head pipe, sparky exhaust can, top end, tires, Chain, sprockets, clutch, Skid plate, Fork seals, Misc oils. and some other stuff I dont recall.  But once your done replacing the stuff youve found wrong, worn out, or broken, your good to go. As long as you stay on top of your maintenance, that bike should last you a very long time.
