The head stem is my main concern. As you will see from the attached picture, the bike looks like it has had some work done to the head stem. Currrent owner reports it was done before he bought it. Not sure if it was cracked and re-welded, or it has been reinforced. First time with an XT600 and seeking some advice (even if its to 'walk away right now').
Thanks,
Matt
