My neighbor told me about a friend of his that was killed on his 2001 Raptor. The boys brother is selling it for $1,000 just to get rid of it. The boy was an amateur and hit a stop sign going about 70 mph, so of course the quad has some damage. From what I heard, it flipped several times and the fenders are broken, axle is bent, and wheels are bent. I'm sure there are other problems too, but for $1,000, that's a good deal. Should i buy it? What are your opinions?

I dont know man, Sounds kind of creepy to me, I know what happened on it to the previous owner would always be on my mind when I rode it. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

Just pray that the luck streak doesnt carry on. THat would be kinda freaky though... Someone died on the quad you would be riding. But for $1,000, I think I could deal with it.. I feel sorry for the kid that died, having a wreck on a quad is no fun at all, much less with that outcome..

I know it is kind of freaky, but I plan on having it inspected by myself,as well as my local yamaha shop. I didn't include the key to that story. The kid that was killed was not wearing a helmet, and he was on the street. I like to occasionally ride down the street too, but I always where a helmet.I can deal with riding a quad that someone died on. It was his foolishness that got him killed. I take all of the necessary safety precautions when riding. It's not worth risking your life to ride without a helmet.
