If it is the big wheel version it is extra desireable. My take on a small wheel 80 is that one that year is likely to need everything. One tipoff to the current owner is his comment about a worn ring letting oil buy. The man knows zip about two stroke engines (likely he is fair about that and knows zero about 4strokes too). That tells you he hasnt been into it.
I bought two small yz's in the past two years, both complete and together. locked up. an 85cc and a year older 80. i paid 200 for the 85. less for the 80. new cranks and cylinders in the 105cc range and you are done for under 1000 with fresh everything including clutches. Buy baskets and pay basket prices instead of crapshoot medium priced 'deals'. those all seem to need everything mentioned within 6 months anyway.
