Default What Do you look for when buying a used quad?

I was just wondering what everyone looks for when there buying a new quad?
I always buy use everything and the rules are the same Mint with little use. With ATV I know things about the bike I ,such as it,s original tire make. If the ATV has low miles it will show but if the original tires are mint than that says it all. I also look at the owner, I like Mister Suburbia (45 yrs old) who was to busy to get out and ride and needs the ATV gone for room to park his and hers SUVs in the garage.
