picked up a 99 warrior a few weeks back, was my buddies who bought it the same day i bought my 400, but he sold it and it went through 2 owners, then the last owner couldnt get it running one day, went with a friend to buy it and the kid wouldnt take 550, i ended up trying a week later and got it for myself for $500, within a half an hour i got it back to my buddies and stripped and come to find out someone unplugged the ignition so we plugged it in and it fired right up, quad would randomly cut out while riding so i cleaned the carb, new battery and fixed whatever was broke, needed front wheel bearings so i did those, just did the rear carrier bearing today which was a pain, and did all new brake pads, and cleaned the tank cause it would only fully run on reserve and come to find out the tank was filled with crap from like sitting under a tree, still dont know if im gonna keep it as a spare or flip it for a profit

when i got it

thats why i kept it, was on the quad when i got it and too funny to get rid of it, over time from trail riding it will wear out
