Got no serious offers on my monster 09 800 but I may pull the trigger on a RZR anyway. Can pick up a new 09 overstock camo for about $9k and it's looking hard to pass up. Thinking it might be the best time to buy one now and do some mods over the winter!

No offense Switzo, but if you really want to sell your 800, I think it would be easier with it back to stock or close to stock with a few add-ons like bumpers, winch, etc, And sell the other stuff separately. I think your machine looks and sounds awesome with all the goodies but I personally wouldn't want or need some of them. (For example the tracks.) If I were a random guy looking at a used machine like yours, I'd think WOW with all that stuff that's a good deal but in the back of my mind I'd be wondering what has it been through and would it be reliable after all those mods. If I could buy it, you would have it SOLD! But I actually like being married to my wife and getting to see the kids every day. LOL

Switzo, with the economy the way it is and Duluth being hit hard as anywhere, you ought to consider selling it to the Army!! They need something like that over in the middle East

lol uncertifiedmechanic!

readymixer-I'd put it back to stock but sold all the stuff. Tracks aren't going with it because I'm using them on my 07 800 and will run them on the RZR too. I know what you mean about the guessing game on buying a used modded machine. I keep it clean and maintained which is easy to tell when looking at any used machine. As for your wife and kids, it's always easier to beg for forgiveness thean ask for permission-lol!

sten-no way I could trade it in with the mods so that isn't an option.

I just figure that the right person will come along at the right time that is looking for something like mine with the $ to buy it. Until then I will enjoy it enjoy tooling around everyone on the trail in 2wd while they're stuck(still help them out-lol).
