Great buy for 200!  My buddy had a zilla that had the front lower rails smashed and he took it to a guy that builds choppers and he cut them off and replaced them with chromoly.   Did a great job.  Do like all these guys suggested, the Zilla has a few factory flaws but once you get them lined out, it's just as if not more reliable than the new 450s.  Not to mention faster.  I completely rebuilt my 88 Zilla about 8 years ago now and it's NEVER left me stranded or broke.  (other than dropping a few nuts and bolts in the sand.  DON'T USE SS NUTS & BOLTS!  Or aluminum axle nuts.) Starts 1-3 kicks every time. 

Quadster was just making a joke.  We see lots of people trying to sell these bikes and they all seem to think .04, .06, .08, etc = CC.  Like .08 some how = 80cc.

Good Luck, and post pics!
