I was wondering where all you guys got the money to make these sick quads. Where does it come from?

My 450r is all aftermarket once you buy the parts they pretty much hold there value and when you get a new quad what doesnt fit you can sell for a good price. I always buy used stuff for almost half off and i take care of all my stuff and can usually sell stuff for how much i bought it for.

I work at a atv dealership, and i buy quads from them that they dont want to bother to sell and ill sellem on ebay or buy damaged aftermarket quads and part them out. I started off on here making air scoops for the 400ex, kfx, ect... for $40

I am 16 and have a part time job. takes a while to save up but I get there. I have about 5,500 into my 400ex.

If you want some good money fast, that is honest work. start pooring concrete. It will give you a beating and a half. but I do it in the summer. work from between 5and7am till 5to7pm. makes good money fast.

8 years of braking crap and having to replace it after I break it.. lol. I just pay an extra few bucks for the better aftermarket parts rather than wasting my time on the replacing stock. ;)

My little 330 has pretty much peaked though. Saving up for one of the 3 450's (probably the LT 2nd year.)

If you shop around you can find great deals on used parts. You'r gonna beat them up anyway, may as well get used in good condition.

That and I'm 30, have a crap load of bills, and work a Full time Job, and a Part time job in the evenings on weekdays to support my ATV addiction, lol.

I had a part time job for a little more than a year, most of what I made there went right into the 250r. I have paid for everything on my quad with my own money.

Full time huh? According to you profile your like 15... so i take it you don't go to school cause i doubt a 15 year old can juggle a FULL TIME job and school, plus checking the mirror everyday for possible armpit/nut hair.:rolleyes:

Thats the thing most of the kids. Im 14 and work my *** off all summer because like i was told i have an expensive hobby. no this chit isnt cheap but my parents dont for anything. I pay for my own parts oil anything its on me. most kids are scared of work and it pisses me off that their parents pay for anything they want.
