    500 bucks a good deal?

    Might be selling off the blaster and getting this started as a project. Im going to try to sell the blaster for $1100 and then have 600 left over for this thing to get it looking right and running good. Tell me what you think I have no experience with these quads at all so let me know.

    X2... it def. is an 87 up motor and swinger... it has a Powervalve = more power than 85-86's.....Check the frame over really good to see if its straight and no cracks or major repairs... also check the swingarm over for cracks... Whatever you find wrong w/ it is a bargaining chip to get it cheaper.... I'd go for it if you can sell the blaster!

    Lets say I buy and I talk him down to 400 bucks. If its got to many problems whats the chance of me getting my money back in parting out. Thanks for the info. I knew that the 86 weren't as good as the 87 and up so that why I was worried about it.

    It seems this guy doesn't know much about his own quad so maybe this could end up being a good deal.

    Thanks for the help
