RESTORED is not the right term. Restored means that it has degraded and has been brought back to New. These machines were probably very low hour machines with a little oil stains here and there and a few scuffs then stripped down and anything that was no perfect was replaced with NEW OEM ORIGINAL parts.

Don't forget about this one

they would make a nice pair. The only thing different between these and new or ORIGINAL is that they used powdercoat instead of paint - which as we all know is a little more durable.

If I didn't think it was a complete waste of money to have that much money tied up into something to look at I'd buy them.

Reiterates the point that I should put my stock parts back on and leave it original. It pretty much is now, anyway... IMO, its not that much fun owning a museum quad. $10,000 geez... The best part of having a quad is modifying it to your personal tastes.

I agree, I build my quads to be ridden hard and out perform a stock bike.

However, if I do win the powerball tonight, I would pick up both of them along with other wanted bikes.
