blazenlo Posted April 26, 2004 Report Share Posted April 26, 2004 Wow, rusted out! Thats alittle wierd. I would look on ebay and see how much the frames are going on there. They always have a couple. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erbilabuc Posted April 26, 2004 Report Share Posted April 26, 2004 I think anywere around 100$ depending on how bad the rust is. SOme people thnk surface rust is bad but its nothing sandblasting cant take care of. Got a picture? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tenn banshee Posted April 26, 2004 Report Share Posted April 26, 2004 At the end of last summer I wrecked my shee and twisted the frame pretty bad as well as the steering stem and axle. I also ripped the clutch perch off during the wreck. I bought a new black 03 limited edition frame from my local dealer for $460 plus tax. The silver frame is $200 more which make no sense at all. If this frame you are talking about is in such bad shape I would look into buying a new one and doing the switch over yourself. It is very simple to switch one over, just takes a little time. I would not want to ride on a frame that has been patched in several areas. If you have any questions on the switch over let me know.

BLASTED Posted April 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2004 sorry, no pic, i dont think that im going to get this quad so thanks anyway for the advice. it has too many problems to deal with and i want a nice one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blazenlo Posted April 26, 2004 Report Share Posted April 26, 2004 Thats probably a good idea. If the frames rusted out i'm sure the rest of the quad ain't too healthy either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
