What to look for on a 1998 KTM 620?
Post Body

Found a 98 LC4 620 in my area I am really considering checking out. It is on Facebook marketplace so as you can imagine little info is provided in the ad. Just two pics both of the left side. From what I can see it looks to be in decent shape for its age. The only real info that the guy gives is that it was running but lost spark. Dunno how long ago that was. Haven't asked any questions yet because I am a few bucks short of his asking price of $1200. Wondering what a good price for it would be?

I have two main questions about it before I contact the guy. What are some common trouble areas for these bikes that I should pay attention too besides the usual used bike inspections? I have heard mixed things about these LC4's and their reliability, vibrations and getting parts. So how well do those hold up and will it be a money pit?

It has dirt set up but I would be turning it into a Supermoto machine. I already have 17's that actually came off of a similar year LC4 I bought for my 350SX-F but instead of putting more money into a lighting kit and other stuff for that I would rather have a bike for moto and a bike for street. Just wish the 620 wasn't right side drive so I could use the wheels for both bikes. Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks.
