    Valve timing issues says to me that it's a parts bike with a junk engine.
    It might turn out to be better than that, but at least it's priced in the right end of the spectrum.

    Worth going to listen to the motor. I'm not confident in the diagnosis with that low miles. Needs a new chain? I'm betting it just has carb issues.

    I'm betting the PO messed up when he was trying to "fix" the bike.
    Needs a new chain tells me he broke it.

    In any case $150 is a good price, and he'd likely take $75 once he's told how difficult it is to rebuild the head after the valve timing gets messed up. ;)

    Maybe he's a streetcorner dealer. Sell the first one cheap to get 'em hooked.
