You did not get a pay out by your insurance company? In those cases the recovered machine belongs to the insurance company.

make that wolvy your work horse. i would go through anything that i wasnt sure what the outcome would be. or you can just make it your back up and take extra parts... or you could just sell it and use that money to buy mods for the one you have now =).

My 660 was stolen and 3 years later I saw it in the back of a truck going down the road. This just happened last December. I turned the license plate # in to the police and they caught the guy a few days later, still with my 4-wheeler. My insurance company at the time (State Farm) gave me $5,500 for it when it was stolen. I bought it back from them last month for $500, which, it was already in my possession, because the police gave it back to me since I basically found it myself. They had no idea that it belonged to State Farm. So technically, I didn't have to buy mine back, but I wanted to do the right thing because usually when I do the wrong thing somehow or another it comes back to bite me. So anyway, I ended up selling my Warrior and keeping the 660. I took the extra money and bought some stuff for the 660.

So I guess we are two of the few luckiest unlucky people out there who actually get their ATV back.

well it's been two years since i've seen it. i'm not even sure how trashed it is. or what they did to by pass the key or if they just ordered a new one. and then i still have to find time to go get it. it's actually almost more of an inconvienence than i have time to deal with. since i'm moving out of state and i'm only in NC on the weekends and i'm trying to pack and get things ready for the movers and such. then i have to get it up to VA
