mxbanshee Posted July 24, 2006 Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 (edited) O.K folks, here's the scoop. This quad is a 2000. It was purshed by my friend brand new off the showroom floor. I now have the ownership, or title in US, registered in my name with appropriate VIN #. All taxes have been paid for and the quad is currently insured under my name with this info and I am in posesion of a licence plate for the quad. The first owner did the initial must have upgrades. He put on the Trinity Stage V pipes and Trinity cool head. He also put a prodesign intake, UNI filter and jetted. When I purshed it it had Maxxis Razr 2's all around on stock rims, these tire will be included in the sale. More general info. The first owner did an excellent job keeping this thing reliable. No internal engine mods whatsoever. When it came time for me to buy one the major thing I wanted was a reliable engine that wasn't hacked to crap. Since I have owned it I have kept the engine stock and have only changed the oil. Don't get me wrong, this thing rips. Bumping up the compression with the cool head and opening up the air flow turns this into a HP monster. Another note is that I live in Canada, so we only get like 3 months out of the year to ride. This has never been in the snow. So since it's purchase in 2000, it only has 18 months worth of riding. And the guy before me hardly never rode, he is perfectionist and just did a lot of waxing, which was perfect for me. When I bought this from him it was not for sale. I offered him lots of cash, he couldn't refuse. So he sold it to me and bought a DS650, what a dummy . Yes I could of bought a brand new one, but this already had the pipes, head, jets, and box done, plus a got some Razr 2's and some Tag Metal bars abd clamps. So I buy this thing, and yes, I'm kinda nuts (by the amount of money I spent). And boy did I have many a good arguments with my beautiful wife, by looking at this quad you see who won. I got addicted to putting parts on it, big time. I loved to see this thing from a great reliable quad to a moggul eating monster. Yes I can go into each and every mod, like the polished cases (I do my own polishing with wheels and compounds) and the infinite amount of billet, to the supper comfortable bar set-up that has and LSR 2+1 stem, Fasst Flex bars, Spider grips, ASV levers and Acerbis guards, and of course the suspention. There is an outdated list on this forum where somebody asked me to list my mods that you could find, or ask me specifics and I will be very happy to respond. Again this is the sad old story of student going to school, student needs money, wife sees dollar bills sitting in garage, student must sell quad. And the truth of the matter is that this barely gets ridden, so I am willing to part. I have an honors udergraduate degree and I'm starting my graduate degree in September. So yes, you do have me in a pickle, since it's the end of July. Now, I will tell what is not up to snuff on this quad, you should know. There is a real small antifreeze leak. I know exactly where it is comming from but havn't gotten around to fixing it yet. It slowly draws from the reserve tank at the back. Now I mean small, you could ride all weekend and not need to bring antifreeze. The current Duncan racing seat cover is ripped up at the top of the seat, I do have the stock seat cover in mint condition that will be included. The price to sew up the Duncan would be cheaper than buying a new one. When I installed it I was worried about it being to loose and look and feel like shit so I ended up putting it on a bit to tight. There are a few plasit stretch marks which are inevitable. I painted the frame on this, which I wish wouldn't have. I wish I would have spent just a little more and got it powder coated. People reading this learn from my mistake, always powder coat. That is all that is "wrong" with this quad. But I will tell you what I think need maintenance. I have never changed the brake pads, breaks work AWSOME with the stainless steel brake lines though, I'm just telling ya everything. Also, there has never been and internal engine work. If I was to keep it I would probably just put a stock set of Yamaha rings in it to keep it fresh. I think that a quad that is ridden hard( which this has not) might gain something like one or two HP from installing new rings. Again, there is nothing wrong with engine or rings but I'm stating what maintence will be requiered, if your into maintenance. Some guys just ride till something breaks. Speaking maintenance there has been major maintenance done. Fresh carrier barrings, new sprockets and Renthal chain, new throttle cable etc.. I have receipts for every single thing that was done which will be handed over to new owner, even the receipts from the first owner. When I was spending major cash I loved to watch the bag of receipts fill up, it is stuffed. So the important stuff. I have this listed all over the place, it has to go so let the listings begin. Actually selling this is my part time job until September, besides my real job. I am keeping a list of all places this is listed and will post SOLD, as soon as it's gone. The second thing is that I live in Ontario Cadada and will be moving to Saskatchewan in September. I will be willing to meet somebody to make an exchange. I will drive a full day (12hrs) max. Another option that I see looking on ebay is that there are shippers that will do it. It looks like it will be about $300 to $500, it is a lot of money but who knows, it's an option. Here are the pics, sorry some are a little dirty, I hate it when it's dirty; Also, not all are up to date, some don;t have the stem and bars, and not all pics have the -1 LSR swingarm, some don't even have grips. Some pics are large, may take a bit to load. Price: $8000 Canadian FIRM. That is $7,006.17 US acording to Yahoo Finance Currency converter on July 24th. Please guys and girls, only serious buyers!
