easily.. (get a 250!) :blah:

[Ruby Soho]

id say so.. times are hard now though, good luck man

[97WarriorRider]

2200-2500 atleast IMO

[krt400ex]

well it does need a few things, but i really only want to unload it so i can pick up this bike. but thanks for the quick replies.

[racerdan24]

i would go with 1500-2000 with what you have on it....

Remember the old trick on selling cars,atvs,etc....little bit of elbow grease.... IE: wax,armorall the tires etc and you should have no problem even in this economy....

krt400ex,

I just checked Craigs List here in Oregon and quads looking less then yours are going for between 3000-3500. I would say 1500 is one heck of a deal. I would send you a cashiers check tonight, but I dont want to pay for shipping. :( That a nice quad and you shouldnt have any problems selling it. GOOD LUCK :)

its 12 o clock somewhere:D

keep in mind that what people are asking for and getting are two different things but you could DEF get 1500 for it as long as you have a clean title. Not sure why but west coasters seem to be able to get more for stuff than us east coasters....sometimes as much as double.

yea, i know and it is annoying lol. it would be nice if i could sell it for alot more.

[sc400ex_rider]

do you have the stock exhaust? if so put it on and sell me the yoshi.......plzzzzz

[Which 450?]

Im in MD, I kno someone that will trade you a 99 kx, just rebuilt; new rings, reeds. Full fmf exhaust, port and polished, boyenson reed cage, I think theres more done but I cant remember. If you are interested pm me. We could work out a delivery

[CJM]

That could feth at least 2200-2700 in my neck of the woods.

I just paid 1800 for an 00 with race cut front plastics and a DC exhaust and nerfs.

[bean2080]

i bought my 03 400ex for $1500 with all the mods listed. i would say if you fix everything on it you could get $2000+

[lilyamaharacer4]

Stop living in the past man 4 strokes are were its at and u could sell your quad and have enough money for a 250f. Youd have to sell it for more like 2500 though for one.

[97WarriorRider]

I bought my 99400ex all stock with bald tires and a broken cam chain tensioner for 1500..You could def get more for yours.

[madmax400ex]

I live in Ohio and for that bike you would get at least 2500 - 3000!!!!!!!!

[Which 450?]

Remember, what people are asking for, and what they are getting are 2 different things. Times are rough, no one is buying. Its a buyers market to get a good deal...

[storms400ex]

is it stolen??????????:D

[krt400ex]

haha, no. i have the title and its clean. it needs a couple of things. one of the lower a arms is a little bent. not bad though. the headlight bracket broke when a branch fell on it last time we had an ice storm and i was riding. and it needs a new rear rim...which is only $40. so it dont need much but a couple of things.

as for the 250F thing, i am a two stroke guy. if i had a 250R i would not want to sell the quad. there is nothing like hitting the powerband and listening to that engine sing as you go through the gears...the RPMs never dropping. its just too much fun.

AMEN! I love when you come out of a turn, holding er' wide open.. it screaming... pulling the front wheel off the ground.. its such a rush! For me though, I need a thumper and a screamer.. I didn't do well on just one (2 stroke.. I need something else to ride while I am rebuilding it every month! haha In less than a month I put over 60 hours on it! :eek2: it was just too much fun!)

when it is peak riding season i do about 15-20 hrs a month.

reading all of these replys its shocking how much cheeper quads are on the east coast. How much does a new quad retail for? Lets an 07 closeout 400EX.:confused:

[ae13291]

dont sell that for 1500!! i will feel real bad that i cant buy it. i got my 02 400ex for 1350 tho with a spare set of new paddles and rims and some mods done to the quad. but it needed some maintenance

[dunatic]

part of the reason that west coast bikes sell for more is we dont have as much dirt riding available to us. Thus we ride in the sand.

We also dont have as much off road racing. Most of the bikes that are for sale have very little abuse (or hard use for that matter). Peps tend to fix them up (bling) and take a lot of pride in a good looking ride.

Not to say that East coasters dont take care of their machines, we just dont ride em in the MUD as much and our bikes stay shinnier longer.

Riding areas are not close. I live in the Portland area and the nearest killer public owned trail riding is an hour away. Its a day trip. You just dont come home and jump on your bike, ride it to the end of the road and be bop across the neighbors land to the open woods. thus when you get done, you stop by the local car wash and spend another 60 minutes washing them. if you break something, you stop the next week at your stealership and buy a new one.

[alberto]

dunatic,

were neighbors!!!:) I live in Beaverton. I guess what your saying make sense. I wonder if it has to do with the cost of living too? The furtherest east I have been is IOWA and you can buy a 2000sq ft home with a good chunk of land for less than 150K.

Where do yall ride? We mostly hit SANDLAKE:ermm:

and thats why we have a 2nd house next to our riding area and a pressure washer and my airbox is full of tools

I just bought one for 5400 otd

[storms400ex]

kelly blue book on it in illinois is like $3015 retail value

[dsherw00d]

To answer the question on the leftover 07 400EX prices on the east coast - $3895 - just bought one:) With setup, taxes, licensing - about 4300 OTD. I was looking for a 2005 or newer used one and payed the extra $$ to have a new one with 1 yr warranty.

Forgot - plus the 3.9/4.9% financing still applies to the 07s along with Honda Bucks.

If you want to find a place with one - I didn't buy mine at this place, but the place I bough mine from is out.

dsherw00d,

Good for you man! Im looking for a quad for my wife and thats a great price. Close out quads here in OREGON are going for 5999. If I hustle and talk the sales guy down I might be able to get it for 5 even, THAT SUCKS :(

[Which 450?]

same here, their best deals still suck.

[dsherw00d]

Maybe that's one advantage to living in a depressed area of the country like Buffalo:(

Also, make sure your dealers are using all the incentives. Some of them hold them back until negotiations for extra leverage - especially if you have a trade.

For Maryland - I might drive the 5-6 hours to NY to save a $1000-1500.
