check oil level... might had oil burning issues.

if you're anal, bring a friend with you to measure the wheel base and compare left and right side from center of front wheel cap to rear wheel cap. this tells if it had suspension damage or frame damage.

etc. etc. etc.
Thanks, those are great tips. Will definitely check the wheel base infront of the seller, I'm sure that could do some unintended good
