Why buy new?

The way I see it, when you buy new, you pay a decent buck for it. After one ride and the plastics get minor scratches and motor is broke in, it's officially considered used and the value drops like $1000 or more from when you bought it.

If you want somewhat new, you can find decent 05-07 400ex's in the mid 2's to low 3's

on ebay they allow you to make monthly payments. When your on a listing, somewhere at the top it'll say "get monthly payments"

Or you can find 99-02's pretty cheap. Probably around 1000-1500.

I got away lucky. A 2005 for $1800:D

Yea idk im leaning toward a used bike now because even if i would buy a new one the monthly payment would be alot and if i buy used it may have a few goodies on it aready and i could pay it off faster and make more money for more goodies

yeah, plus, you wouldnt have to worry about payments.

God forbid you can't pay them anymore, or you want to sell it, you can't because you dont own it yet.
