Need advice Sportsman 800 Owners..
I am looking to purchase a 2007 Sportsman 800 with 1571 miles on it and about 200 hrs.
Here is a list of thing on the quad:
27" Swamp Fox Plus on 12" ITP 108 SS Black Alloys ( 90% tread), Heel Clicker Clutch Kit (professionally installed), New Polaris Front Differential, 3-Way Head Light Converter, Front & Rear Heavy Duty Lift Springs ( approx. 15" ground clearance), Side Rock Crawler Tubes,
3000lbs Gorilla Winch w/Amsteel Synthetic Rope, monster hook, Black Matte Front & Rear Bumpers, Lock & Ride Box w/ Seat Rest & Saddle Bags, Custom Stereo Tube with 6.5 waterproof speakers with a 300 watt amp hard wired, 4.5 gal Fuel Pak mounted to the rear, Battery Tender System per installed
The price is $4000....is this a good deal? The bike is being sold because the guys kids are getting too old to ride behind him and he is looking at a Polaris RZR or a touring with power steering...
SHOULD I BUY??

Sure, what I am saying is look at the machine close. When you find a machine with over sized tires and extras, you want to look at it close. One of the weak points on the 800's is the motor mounts, if it has been abused and rode really hard the front motor mounts are usually broke loose. Just something to look at. Hope the info helps

You could look at it like do you need a quad with all those aftermarket up-grades , will the places your be riding require a modified machine . Do you need the extra hp and the added fuel cost's of the 800 . I ask because not much more than the $4000 and you can buy a new 2011 500 carb with warranty .

about the engine mounts. just look at the radaitor real good and if he has doen alot of mudding(guessing he has) then it will be partly plugged w/ mud. these normally run hot and if the rad. is partly plugged then it runs even hotter. not too bad of a price. just look at the under carriage and see if it's all bent and dinged up is another way to tell if been ran through the rough stuff. ask about maitance and oil changes and other fluids to know if he has taken care of it. good luck .
