Anyone know what kind of things my neighbor should look out for he just picked up a 08 TGB 450 Outback quad he figures he'll be towing my 500 Polaris home

 

Looked it up on Google and found a almost 6K price on the thing.. That is not too bad for something made in Taiwan. I read that DirtWheels tested the 425 and it had a decent review... Let us know how it goes for your friend..Im also interested in what he paid for the machine...Looks very nice..

 

He paid about $6200 Canadian taxes in I'll keep you posted on how it does this summer .

 

That would be great Spdecat .

It will be interesting to hear how many times he pulls your Polaris home. LOL

 

Thats why I buy second hand. My friend is selling a mint condition 04 blue Yamaha 660 Grizzly with 700 miles( He does not ride much), with 4 new 25" 6ply mudlite tires , stock tires were still good but cheap 2 plys.

He wants $5800 and lives in Sault, Ontario and there is only one PST tax when buying used.

That 660 Yamaha will be running around,well after that china 450 ATV is a distant memory.

 

Why would anyone spend 6k on a Chinese ATV? You could get any number of nice machines built by top companies for that price.

 

Taiwan is a big step up from anything from China. Except maybe the Xtreme brand. What I would worry about is getting parts for it in 5 yrs.

 

He talking about Canadian Prices. My friend bought a Honda 500 Foreman for $8000 in Canada , they sell new higher level 680 Honda Rincons for much less than that in the States.

 

I think he was nuts but thats what they wanted , you can get a new 09 500HO Carb popo for $6200 Canadian right now .
