east coast atv has a speed w/ hmf exhaust black beadlocks and razr tires and a bunch of other goodies its for sale for 4500 does it sound lik a good deal they also have a cannibal for 4300 im trying to sell my quad and talk my mom into buying it for me

 

You sound young. The Dales are high tech and can get very complicated. If I was you I'd move on to a Jap quad..

 

how hard can it be my dads a mechanic and i take small engine repair at my high school ill just get a manual and the only thing i would ever do to it is manteneice i dont need all that fansty ****

 

Those prices are a little high . I also agree with Sandgod. Owning a Dale Takes a certain type of personalty. Its a commitment to take the good with the bad. They have proven to be either ultra reliable or complete lemons and almost never in between. I have one of each . Are you willing to take that chance? I recomend a Jap quad and leave the Dales to us diehards.

 

well its gotta be running strong otherwise they wouldnt b selling it fer 4500 cu if the motor had problems it would probally b cheaper im going to give them a call today and ask

 

Well dont say we didnt warn you. I bought a running moto ($12,700new) with a cannibal in pieces for $4500. All Cannondales with out exception require basic updates that due to the bankruptcy the factory never got a chance to do. Unfortunatly most dealers will tell you that the updates have been done but most find out they are lying or are ignorant of them. Current prices for running Dales should be close to this
Fx400 $1,800
Cannibal $2500
Speed $3,000
Blaze/Moto $4500

If you were going to spend more than that you would be better off going with an ATK They have many updates/upgrades already installed.. Haydug cycles has a bunch of new ATK quads for just a little more than that.
