Default 1999 yamaha tt250 opinions

Looking for something to play around on. Not into racing, motorcross, just want something to ride on dirt roads mostly. Found this bike locally, has definately been used. Some of the plastics are gone, throttle handle grip is broke. What I am most interested in is the running gear longevity. Should I expect this motor to be worn out ? Any idea what the comprssion should be ? Any opinions on the bike appreciated. Looks like it has been ridden hard but I haven't heard it run yet. Asking $850.00. Too high $$ ?
