nacapster Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 With the market being so crazy due to COVID I thought it would be fun to share ads of over priced sleds. I'll start it off with this one: https://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hnp/snw/d/minnetonka-1987-polaris-indy-trail/7372540264.html In comparison a couple months ago a local guy had a relatively clean / garage kept 93 Indy Classic listed with an asking price of $400.

Legend Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 I'm really considering listing my back sled for a stupid amount and see what happens. It probably won't be as bad as most, when I sell shit it usually goes very quickly because I always sell cheap just to get rid of it.

(craigslist.org) Dang! I have a 99 and 01 polaris 340 my son has about outgrown. For that money I'd gladly dump them this year. I sold our 3rd 340 last spring for what seemed like crazy money.

Bontz Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 And here I thought an older friend of mine, who I helped sell his 2000 Indy Classic with over 4k miles on it for $2500 was crazy (but he got the money out of it). I was telling another buddy of mine last night, his 2011 Rush 600 would probably sell for close to $5K and he couldn't believe it. This shit is proof, the used market is insane. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, me almost daily searches makes me goggle so weak times. I think I saw a 2019 renegade XRS with 5000 miles or so for $9500 yesterday that made me smile.

Doug Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 Friend who does builders sold one last year where the guys girlfriend wrecked it so he bought it back after the insurance claim. Fixed it again and sold it last week for $1200.00 more than he sold if for last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SayatodaU.P.eh? Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Lord knows that the current price of new sleds is certainly helping to keep my money in the bank, instead of buying new. What is crazy, about the crazy used sled prices is, I don’t know how they are selling them. I put my Fusion up for what I thought was a reasonable deal, considering all of the crazy prices I was seeing at the time, last spring and not one bite. Oh well. That reminds me, time to relist it.

racinfarmer Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Been looking for a reasonably priced nice Sno Pro 500. Those do not exist right now. Every one is either overpriced or beat to crap, or both. I found a ZR4000 RR that had some issues that I thought about, but someone else wanted it way worse then I did, I guess.

Contacted a seller last March about a 2017 RMK 800 that needed a top end, within 11 minutes of him posting it. This was at 9:00 on a Sunday night. Told him I would be by to look at it and at least give him money down, around 3 pm the next day. Got a text at 11 am the next morning telling me not to waste my time. Guy showed up at his house at 9 am that morning and took it. Guess I need to step up my game and skip out on work to buy this shit these days.

I feel like you can still get a decent one in the 3500-4000 range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've missed out on a $1500 Rush with a blown motor, a $800 Dragon 600 with a blown motor, and a $400 F7 Sno-Pro with a blown motor so far. I'd chance the two Polaris sleds for the price. Work my connections with the Big P on discounted parts. 29 minutes ago, mnstang said: I feel like you can still get a decent one in the 3500-4000 range. You can get a decent one if you watch, but I'm more of a $2000-2500 kind of guy. Only one I've seen in that range had a bent frame and was all corroded inside. Guess I'll restart the search for a Z370. The one I really should have bought was the F570 with a blown engine and either repaired that one or swapped a Z370 or Z440 motor into it.

To find a good sp500 in that price range is looking for a miracle. Every once in a while I see one in that price but I wouldn't say it's a nice one. Although, it's an sp500 and if you're just worried about function and mechanicals then you could pretty much get any of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t found anything that is really blowing my hair back so I don’t care but, I am starting to wonder if I may end up on something less than I desire for this season.

I haven’t found anything that is really blowing my hair back so I don’t care but, I am starting to wonder if I may end up on something less than I desire for this season. It’s like the Indy I bought last spring. I wasn’t really looking for a new trail sled at all. I’m lucky if I trail ride a few times a year anymore. Then, this Indy came up and while it was out of a rental fleet, I know/trust the dealer so I did it. It’s got it’s nicks and scratches but seems solid otherwise. The miles on it don’t scare me. The track is already pretty much toast but I didn’t plan to run it anyway so I’ll swap that out and replace the drive axle bearings while I’m in there because they probably need it. I already have the heavier torsion springs and a verbal appointment at my buddy’s shop to do the shocks anyhow, as well. Wait! I should probably call Ricky for one of his grease able drive axle cover plates! Or, I could take a drill bit, a tap and a 25 cent grease zerk and make my own? Man. Decisions, decisions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
