today i just got back from looking at a 1999 yamaha warrior


the person wanted 1800$

it had the following assc.

white bros e-series
2 sets of wheels and tires- holeshots, on itp rims, and the stockers
graphics kit
skidplates
works rezzi rear shock with shock wares all around
extra a-arms , and shocks included


it also had the following wrong with it

some rust on chain, sprocket, and swing arm, as well as foot pegs, and frame
bad solonoid-couldnt start due to that and dead battery
couldnt roll it due to it needing a frount ball joint, and wheel was off-included new arms

i told them i'd think about it, for 1800 should i pass it by, or mabey take another look, imho i dont think it was worth 1800, without hearing it run it is worth 700-800 to me.

what do you all think sorry i didnt get pics of it.

i like yamaha and all but warriors are really out dated quads.just about the only thing they are good at is slow trails.i know this from expierence. i say get a 400ex but if you want reverse get even a 300 ex.a 300 with the same mods as a warrior will only lose on topend.but handeling,jumping,etc will be better.

 

the bikes not for me, but i do like warriors, my next bike after i sell my rm, is going to be none other than a 1992 lt250r [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

You can do way better than that, let this one pass by.

 

Unless it's a project quad, if you can't hear it run, run away! For $1800 you should be able to purchase a decent warrior that is ready to run.

I would pass. Or, offer him $1000 and spend the remaining $$$ and fix it up.

 

thanks guys thats how i felt to, im going on sunday to look at a warrior, but i know the guy who owns it(he also owns about 10 other bikes) it is a 2000, titled, and stock, he said it was mint, all for 2000$, if i dont bring it home with me, i'll get some pics.
