Red face Help with Selling Price

Hey guys,
I took in a very nice 1986 Suzuki LT230F-G for a debt owed. I was about to pursue legal action and ended up with this quad. It has 2900 original miles looks very sharp and has a electric plow and winch. Everything works fine including electric startand reverse, and quad runs great (from what I can tell) it may need new wheel bearings. It will come with extra set of non winter wheels for back. Plastics are custom,, just wondering what I should ask for, as I have to sell it to re-coop my funds. Thanks in advance!!!

Check what the NADA resale value is. Check Craigslist, ATV trader and the local papers and see what other models similar to yours are selling for. Use all those and kind of get a feel for the price. Don't be afraid to ask too much, you can always go down in price. But if you find out later you could have sold it for more, it's money lost.

Unless I'm gonna buy it, then they really don't sell for much.

Default 1986 Quad

I think Scooter has the right idea, check around and let the market determine the price.

Keep in mind that the ATV is still a 1986 vintage... and that will set the pace for most folks. The technology has changed, dried out seals, parts availability etc.

Granted that the mileage is low and it's in good shape - but a 24 year old bike is still a 24 year old bike. Very few people will offer you what you think it is worth.

Good Luck!
