thanks for the input. I think this one is somewhere inbetween mistreated and taken care of. I'll give it a closer look over the weekend. Is there anyplace to buy the exhaust? How expensive is expensive ($300 or $800 or more?)? thanks

Hi I'm looking o get into trials to improve my riding ability and to have some fun. I found a 2002 Montesa 315r for sale locally for $2000 usd, I took a look at it and the exhaust will need to be replaced, the header is dented p pretty good and the muffler has been completely worn through by a rubbing rear tire, also the rear wheel bearing was a bit loose, the bike also had scratches and such that I would imagine are typical of a used trials bike...the good side it started first kick and idled pretty well. I'm wondering if this bike is worth buying in this condition and what a good price would be (and where would I find a new complete exhaust for one of these) or should I wait until something better comes along? thanks for your input Mike
