Get it for 2000.00 and do the upgrade. You will be right there at your 3000.00 mark with an 2004 tranny!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] even if it were a 01 I would buy them all day for 2000.00!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

yeah, raptor owner is right.... you never know what your getting when you buy a used quad. you could end up with a cherry.....or a lemon. if it were me i would buy the cheaper one and put a new tranny in it. THIS WAY...you know what youve got. you could end up buying one for 3K and find out this fall that its got tranny problems too....

at least this way you know what your getting and then your gonna know what youve got too....

if it were me thats what i would do too, just thought id tell you what i thought

My 01 raptor's tranny is still going strong too! It too slips out of gear from time to time or really sucks putting it into reverse, but it does give me problems while riding/racing.

I'd rather put up with the inconviences of the tranny rather than replace it since the machine is still too fast too handle.
To fast to handle lol...theres guys out there with turbo ds's and 730 raptors...i dont see them complaining theres is to fast to handle[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

it is all fun and games until you are driving 80mph and your trans locks up and you go flying off of your quad. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
