I think $1300 is a great deal if it runs well and is in good shape. I just paid $1600 for mine and everyone thinks I got a good deal. mine is in good shape but needed some odds and ends such as a good servicing and to tighten down everything. mine was stock except for a pipe. I have since put in a k&n and jet kit and it runs awesome. I agree, keep it mostly stock and service it right and it should last a long time. if your wife can ride your 400 with no problems, then the warrior won't be a problem either. I went from a polaris sportsman 700 twin to the warrior and its a lot of fun. in my opinion, its a good beginner bike and also a lot of fun for one that has rode before
