I've got a 95 ZZR250 that I've had since new. Since the start of 2000 its been sitting under cover in the garage as it started making one hell of a racket with a VERY loud rattling noise, real unhealthy sounding. I never had it fixed as I had about $200 to my name, and never found the cash to spend on it since tehn
Now that I've actually got money to spend on it I was wondering what sort of fix job I'd be looking at? Should an engine that's been sitting there for 6 years still be fine to fix? or should I be looking to have a new engine put in?
On the plus side, its only got 35,000km on it, so not bad for a 11 year old bike)
Cheers.

"loud rattling noise" is pretty vague, so try and get it running again so you can start the diagnosis. That's really the only way you'll know whether it is worth doing anything to. A few hundred bucks to have it fixed would be worth it, as you'll recoup that money pretty easily for a going machine.
