Condition means more than age of the machine or miles..Look it over carefully,plus you can generally tell if it's been taken care of or beaten to death. Just use this as a reference.Kelley Blue Book

got a friend that has a 2010. has voltage reg. problem, seems after research that is common on them. the answer seems to be (so far) an aftermarket reg. ?

1500 miles is low mileage for a 2006, my Grizzly has twice that many miles on it. I considered a Sportsman 800 at one time as well. The Grizzly cost less, the main reason I bought it. The 800 has more power for sure. In general, what OPT said just look it over and you can tell if it was well taken care of or not. The price will reflect condition as well. A higher price should indicate excellent condition. A lower asking price usually means less than excellent condition.
