Looking at a used 2007 Sportsman with 2700kms on it. Still on original tires.

New to ATVing. Could anyone give me some tips on what to look for on this machine or when purchasing a used ATV. I have extensive dirt bike knowledge but not sure what to look for when going over a used ATV.

Thanks for the help.

 

how was it maintained? has it been submerged in water(walk away if so). look how dirty the radiator these 800's run very hot and the 06's needed to have the computer to be remapped to keep it running cooler. .how is the front end parts and suspension. the struts were weak there for they sagged. just a few main things to look at. oh, make sure the cv's and boots are in good shape with no holes. any clicking means a bad cv
