Default RS250 questions

Hello folks
toying with the idea of picking up a used Aprilia RS250 track bike. Can anyone shed some insight as to what I am getting myself into with owning one. I keep hearing about having to rebuild top ends and bottom ends on these bikes. What's the realistic period between tear-downs and rebuilds? What's the usual cost involved with regard to rebuilding and parts? How hard are these bikes to work on? How hard are engine parts to get for these now that they are no longer a retail sale bike here in the US?
I am mechanically experienced, just have no time on two strokes.
thanks
Ken
