Give him $2000 for it and get it. I'm a pretty hardcore Honda guy but I have to say the Yamaha quads are far superior.

I mean look at the Grizzly 700 and YFZ450 !!

Yea it is fun to buy bikes, tear them down, put a little money into them and sell them. Generally all it takes is a good carb clean, replace filters and oil and maybe brakes and it's running and back to normal.

for sure man. most bikes are so easy to work on and people just dont know how or are scared. or they will let them sit for so long and just want them out of there way. gotta take advantage of it.

Raptor we can see that you're still online. I'd love to know what you meant by that comment.
