Sparks and roadking - What reason(s) can you give for not paying more than $4500- $5000.

He will take $5500 with his wheels on or $5100 without the wheels. I would buy a full set of .190 douglas and razr's (~$400), so the total will come out to $5500 anyway. Do you think I should ask for less than $5100? Has anyone heard of Boss atv a-arms? I haven't...

ed, you forgot to tell them that since all this work was done, it has been ridden TWICE. i just dumped tons of money into this quad, and unfortunately, for personal reasons, i must sell. if anybody on here knows me from paatving.com, you will know how much work and money i put into this thing (i have the receipts to prove it).

5500 with rims and tires, or 5100 without, NO LESS! it is what it is.

I am into this one for some wheres around $14,500 give or take abit..(that doesnt make it a better bike...its just $$ in parts that i wanted on mine)......So in my opnion that is a good deal for $5100.....yeah maybe you can find one cheaper but you may end up with a cheap bike also..........jump on this one. I would if i was were you:D :cool:

I know you werent .........but i have seen lesser quads than the one he is asking about,,,,,,,,, for about the same or more $$$........

I guess we all have at one time or another:D

Id say its worth it if he wants a quad that is ready to ride.......personally i think the tearing apart of the quad and putting it back together is 50% of the fun factor;) :p

However i did pay 4500 for my 88 and it was not in near as good of condition as the one being asked about.....my 88 was all stock

Something for him to think about maybe:p

That R looks to be extremely clean (huge plus), but you must realize its not completely modded out like many R's are. But just getting an R from normal condition, to that condition with some nice mods would take thousands of dollars (I know from experience)!
Definatley worth $5500!

If I were buying it $4,000-$4,500 because I won't buy anything that isn't a steal. If I were selling it $5,000-$5,500. Thats just my openion. Like I said if it's not a steal I don't buy it, but then I won't sell anything for less than it is worth.

$5,000 is probably a good price for buyer and seller.
