not much dont mean to offend you but your much better parting it out because you have so much aftermarket, and the atv resale suck trust me i tried so i just kept it! nice quad if i didnt have one i'd buy it. if you do let me know ill take a few things off your hands.

what he said^^, youll never get what you put into it. I would part it out and put it back to stock so that way you get money for all those parts and money for the bike itself.

Speaking from experience! Unless its not a big deal to you to take the time for a complete teardown your best interest is in a fair price to you and the seller as a whole. Yes you will have more $$$ come in on a part out, but to me my time was worth more than the little added money that I would have seen.

You have to figure in:

Time in a tear down
Time, money and materials in packaging
Time, money and fuel you will use taking the packages to the shipper
You will not get all the money at one time
parts that didn't sell end up in the trash or you just give them away
Chance of parts getting damaged in shipping (can be offset with insurance but will cost you)
Time, time, time and more time!!! Get my point about the time! Time is Money!!!

Other than that my suggestion would be, if you have the stock parts, put the quad back to stock suspension and stock anything else you can other than the motor and sell it whole that way! Then you can sell the aftermarket parts since they hold more value by themselves.

oh, I'd say as it sits you'd might get 4500. A clean stock bike will fetch 3500 tops!

Thanks. I wouldn't part it out, I'm just testing the waters. Most of my riding partners have turned into vaginas, so until both my kids can ride, I might as well get the cash.

I feel ya man, thats one of the main reasons for selling mine. We'd go out riding and 45 min later they were done, "I'm tired man" "I need to stop before I hurt myself" WTF Can't hurt yourself if your a PUSSSSSSY and ride like an old lady!

Well fellas, the wife gave me the go-ahead. I know this isn't the place to post an ad so I'll do so under the classifieds. I called my one riding buddy and told him and he told me I'm an idiot to sell it. Guess if the **** would want to ride it'd be a different story. I'm sure I'll miss it this fall/winter, but oh well. The hill at Sand Hollow just got a little easier for those YFZs. :crybaby:
Shawn, tell your buddy it's his if he wants it. I'll throw in all the stock parts, oil I haven't used yet etc.

I wish I had bought one like yours rather than pay all the money I have paid to do about same build as yours. I really thought Buddah might be all over this, but I guess he's not in any hurry to make a decision. I'll let anyone I know who might be interested. Good Luck on the sale.
