What about with the extras that come with it ?

 

That is very good question.If the person you are dickering with is quad literate ,you MAY BE able to recoup some of the "extra money"spent on mods.For the most part you'd have better luck returning your machine to stock(you kept the oem stuff,right?)and selling the after market goodies separate.

 

yeah i still have stock parts. Anybody else have a oppinion liike to hear them all

 

i'm with BIGGIN!
return it to stock.
lift kits are proven to put too much strain on everything.
the ride quality of the 26" Outlaws SUCK! i'd never own them again. tell the guy to KEEP THEM.
Bi/Tri claws i don't know anything about.
the guy won't get anything for the tires and wheels sold separetly so you shouldn't pay anything more for them.
it all boils down to: what would i pay for a '99 with 1800 miles that's been beat-on?
it's not something i'd buy, but $3000 sounds about right.
for about $2500 more, why not buy a NEW left-over '02????
