Default Need input on 1996 Magnum 450 4x4

Hey guys,

I stumbled upon a deal, did I do good? 1996 Magnum 425 4x4, super swamper tires, extended basket racks, and warn winch. Rides good, looks good, nothing broken, looks like a older quad still in good shape. My only turnoff is that its blue in color, but I love that it has a speedo, selectable AWD, for a quad made in 1996. Paid $875 for it from old lady whose husband had just passed.. Did I over pay or come out too far ahead?
Can anyone tell me anything I need to know as a first time magnum 425 owner. I have not found much info on this quad online, does anyone have any links to good info on this quad? Is there any common problems with this model? Power mods? anything???
Thanks in advance,

You did good. Those are around 2000.00 all day long. Change the engine oil often, to keep the cam from going round on the exhaust side. good luck. Doc
