Prospective new owner

Hey, everyone! I think this is the place to ask, forgive me if I'm wrong.. I found myself a possible bike. An acquaintance is selling his 2001 gz250 for $200. Yes, $200. The bike itself is not in bad shape, just a little dirty. The catch is, it's been sitting for a little under a year. I went to take a look yesterday and the bike will turn over (starter works) with good compression and a clean carb. but will not start. Obviously there is no cure-all solution and every bike is different, but I'd love some outside opinions on whether this would be $200 well spent towards a solid weekender bike.
