 |
|
Got an offer on an '02 Warrior 350?
Its only got 30 hours on it, just had battery replaced, otherwise stock.
Plastics pretty good.
Fella's asking $4k but will prob take $3,500.
I would be using the quad for trail riding and hunting purposes. I will look for after market racking or get some made. So Im not too worried bout that.
Maybe someone has a similar quad lieing around doing nothing they wanna sell me for better? _________________ www.asho.com.au for your shooting and outdoor needs

Believe the Nick in quite Knock if you get the pun. Its actually in Echuca but I have a few friends there including a friend who I bought a bike for his kid in Melbourne, who I'd trust with my hard earned to assess it and next week I hope to be going out camping on a sheep station up i NSW for a bit of hunting and hopefully taking my new ride with me for extra curricular.
Only concern is those HUGE balloon tyres that have since been run out of town. Wibble wobble!
I have noticed a few guys who do ride quads for hunting in that area have actally found a wheel to match the hub and tyre guard dimensions and fitted them with steel belted radial ute tyres with fill winter/mud grips, to cut down on punctures cos the offraods their is filled with quartz rock and others as well as saplings that have been broken off at 3 inches above the ground, that you'll never avoid at pace.
I would have looked at your bikes mate but they're too race oriented and out of my price range by heaps cause theyre so hott!! Love the black and orange SE. The Warrior is Black and I have a bit of moster energy gear so may graphic to match and look like a complete wanker!!
I know I could grow into a bigger bike faster but they're are a stretch outside my budget and where-as I will be able to afford this one now and do mods at will and I may outgrow its potential in a year, its still something I could hang onto until I was ready for bike 2, with a little more knowledge of moding under my belt..
Like one o them flatrack racers!!
Ever seen that done, have a view?? ( I mean the car ute tyres on bikes) _________________ www.asho.com.au for your shooting and outdoor needs

pretty easy to fit up a set of good HD offroad tyres, I don't reckon I'd be going to the trouble of trying to fit up car wheels and tyre's when there are so many good ATV tyres available (also steels belted radials are a prick to repair out on the trail) _________________

What brand do you reckon is a good off-road?.
One of the reasons the guys do it is almost 100% ribbuer knob cover with only water grooves on the tyres, the idea being the object had to push through the knob as well as the tyre I guess.
I dont think Ive seen an ATV trye like that yet.
Gotta Link handy?

Bike is inspected VGC, guy wont move off $3,800, Ive told him $3,500 is fair market price. The stand-off begins.
Preassure No.2 begins. _________________ www.asho.com.au for your shooting and outdoor needs
