2002 Polaris Sportsman 700 for $500
Hi guys, I just bought a 2002 Polaris Sportsman 700 twin for 500 bucks. Sounds to good to be true, i know. It runs drives goes into 4x4 and stops. The whole 9 yards. The only thing is the shift linkage is broke. Did I get a good deal. I want to know what you think.
ps it came with a winch and a 6 foot plow

Even if you have to spend a few hundred fixing or replacing other things it most likely needs, you're still going to be well ahead. The winch and plow alone are probably worth $500. I assume it has a ton of miles but as long as the engine isn't smoking I wouldn't worry about it. Just check the oil often to make sure it isn't using any and top it off if and when you need to.

Ya thing starts right up. No smoke or anything like that. As for miles and hours im not really sure. I need to look this weekend. My wife picked it up because I was away. Ill post on here as soon as I know. And thanks. Seeing that it can be worth over $2,000 really makes me feel good about my buy.

UPDATE. I looked into it, It has 1,462 miles and 221.5 hours. Goes into all gears. (I had to use vice-grips because the shift shaft is broke.) It needs U-joints on the front prop shaft, 2 rear axles, rear brake line, and the plastic foot wells. The plastics have a crack that has been stitched up. There is also no front rack. It will also need tires. But overall I think I got a good deal.
