Default Warrior- flipped

got back from 4 day fishing trip to find my '03 Warrior ruined. Handlebars bent, front axle bent, left front plastic broke, grab bar off, and front lights bent. I guess my sister took it out, but she isn't home to tell me what happened. Anyway, where is a good place to find parts? While i am replacing stuff, should I replace standard parts with better stuff? Where can I get all new plastic (custom colors)?

Thanks

Pete

For a cheap fix, you can get used parts off Ebay.

Do you have insurance? If not try ebay but be sure of the parts you need. I'd drop it by a dealer and get a detailed list of parts to replace if they'll give you a free/very low cost estimate then buy the parts off ebay or a salvage yard.

I want to know the story about what happened about your bike? WHO? WHAT? WHEN? WHERE?

First off you shouldnt be paying for any of those parts so get the most exspensive and best ones ehehe. Then someone will think twice for bashin the **** out of your quad if they have to pay for it.

For cheap ($) stock parts (lights) try eastcoastatv.com. Rockymountainatv.com would have the cheapest prices on aftermarket handlebars, fenders, front axle?? im guessing A-arm? if so they have good prices on extended a-arms. You can get a PRM grab bar for like $30 at rpm-atv.com.

i guess my sister took it out and was doing some jumps or something and came down and hit something... wasn't too clear... but at least her bruises are bad! A part of the frame (near the front) which is welded seems to be broken. maybe reweld it?? i don't know if that will work and i don't want to put a bunch of new parts on a crappy frame. Any place for new frames? i don't want racing but i do want a good condition, newer frame. after buying a 5k machine, i don't want too much used junk on it. it looks like i'll have to pay for all the parts. i have done atv work before, but never stripped a quad of all its parts. I want to do it myself to keep costs down. can i do this? any extra special tools? or manuels? my friend has a atv/snowmachine shop but is real busy. he might be able to check it all out after i finish repairing it to make sure it is all together right.


thanks for the help

pete
