polarigirl,

If it is in good shape that is a good price.

Yes, it is a good price. Sometimes a cheaper price makes you question why. Just look it over really good to make sure there's nothing wrong with it. The Recon is really light so you can tip it up on the rear rack to look over the underneath. (Set parking brake and turn gas off before tipping it up.) Check the oil, shifting, listen to the motor, etc.... It might just be a kid that wants some quick money. It also may just need brakes or tires. Then again it might just be a good deal. Good luck.

 

That does sound like a very decent price. I know Polariman will do well at looking it over. Is it an ES or manual shift?

I think it is a pretty good-sized quad for the boys, whether it's for (it is so hard not to type their names on here!!!) the older one or if he outgrows it and the younger one uses it. I don't know if you remember but a guy we've ridden with has his 9-year old boy on one. Not condoning children on ATV's that are too big, but I am very amazed at how that little boy handles that recon and he goes through everything.

PS) sorry we couldn't ride or anything this weekend. I was sicker than a dog [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img]

 

ATVGurl,

I have seen a dog eat toothpicks and I can't imagine you being that sick but if you were I feel your pain or I witnessed the dog's pain and that is sick. WOW

ATVGurl,

I just saw where your a range rover it seems like you have been a Pro Forever to me[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

 

This would be for the 14 year old - but figured if he grows out of it, the youngest will be into it soon. It's a manual shift - which he shouldn't have problems with since he's used to it on his dirt bikes. Oh yeh, i'm sure polariman will go through it with a fine tooth comb. I'm thinking the kid is just wanting some money that is selling it. Has the registration, etc. with it so at least know it isn't a hot item plus helps knowing the family.....I'd be more nervous about it if i didn't know the people selling it.

Bummer on being sick ATVGurl - I think I have the crud today - sore throat, etc. Couldn't be from this lovely weather we've had lately! Weather stunk anyway, so doubt we would have gotten to ride anyway.

 

Thanks guys. Yes Chet, I was that sick [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img] It only lasted a day, though, so I was glad about that!! Only 8 more and I'm a pro [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Hope you're feeling better today, Polarigirl. Let us know when you want to go riding again. This weekend is a no-go, but maybe next weekend?

 

Couldn't resist posting...I've gone pro [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

I am so happy for you!!!

ATV Gurl Rocks!

Can they do another name for when you hit around 700/800? Maybe another around 1200/1500? Top 20 Pro Rider, Top 10 Pro Rider, or maybe GNCC Pro Rider or something. Just an idea.
