looking at a 87 Warrior 350 for $1200. Rear shock need recharge, other than that it seems like a sound machine. Guy is negotionable. Any advice? Thanks

 

what knid of shape is it in? nay mods?

now does the rear shock need recharged... or rebuilt?


if it is in poor condition i would talk him down to like 700

i would atleast talk him down to 900 maybe 975

 

Plastic isn't cracked small seat tear no mods He claims they took shock out to recharge but no one could do it. New shock was like $350, but I found one on Ebay for $78 buy it now. I am looking at a few other wheelers, but I a have been kinda leening towards this one.

 

just buy a 01 raptor rear shock... adjust it soft and use it like that.. recon99 recently did that on his quad.. idk how well it performs with the stock front shocks... the only reason i did mine was because my rear shock was blown..

 

Yeah, I got the rappy rear shock. The front shocks still stink, but eventually a set of elkas are going to change that.

Speedy, how do you have yours set up? I was messing around with it today, and I just can't seem to get it right. Also, did you have any trouble with the bottom chain roller after you installed the shock? My chain is constantly riding on the lower roller... er what's left of the roller.

 

I am assuming a raptor shock is not a charged shock? How much do they run?

 

recon, i adjusted mine pretty soft... if i were you.. go about 1/4 from the top on adjustment...

and if i were you.. put some raptor front shocks and + 2 a-arms.. or even yfzshocks and +2 a arms... that will help it out alot...

if you got aim get on it..

 

The guy is going to meet about 1/2 way, so that will save me about 3 hrs round trip. He will take $1050 for it. Shock works he just tightened it a little will probably need replacement down the road. Carb leeks a little, but I can rebuild that.

 

Bought the warrior. It's in great shape. Had to dump the fuel though, must have been from last fall. Runs smooth now. I am not sure about having a clutch and no low gear, take some getting used to. The suspension is just fine but tires are not so pretty. Also it's an 88.

 

i think 1st gear is low enough... STOCK it can climb pretty much anything in 2nd or 3rd...

i know that at badlands with my slipon and cut lid it will most likely(wasn't runnig good last time there) i can prolyl ACCELERATE up verticle faces in 3rd...
