New guy here

I'm going to look at an 03 400 trailblazer this friday. Can you tell me what things I should be looking for or at? Owner says it has hardly been used. I've had other ATV's before but never a Polaris. I would think a 400CC 2 stroke would really rock. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

also check the counter balance for water or not having oil.it is located on the motor under the carb.This is VERY important

Remove the seat and look straight down under the carb. You will see a tall fitting (it's the counterbalancer dipstick) with a large slot in the top of it. Take a LONG screwdriver and remove it. You should see oil on it.
