Hey guys!
I got another dilemma and need the opinions of the pros! I:I
I picked up a 98 Warrior 350cc yesterday, and once again, I am torn about what to keep and what to sell. :-/
My 2001 Blaster is 100% complete, runs, drives, and stops excellent. It's very clean and looks great! The cons are that I dont have a title for it, but the vin is clean according to a friend who is a DE state trooper.
Now the Warrior I picked up is obviously bigger with a 350cc, not to mention it has reverse, electric start, and a title. I bought it from the second owner who has all paperwork for it including the original bills of sale from the dealer and all receipts from day one. The cons for the Warrior are that it needs a front drive sprocket, which I ordered and is on it's way, and it's ugly. The second owner painted the plastics at one point which are now flaking, and theres green over-spray on both sides of the engine and front shocks. Not sure if someone tried to cammo it or just painted something near it. Plastics and the frame and stuff I can tear down over the winter and powder-coat everything or replace. So not a big deal there. It does fire right up and sounds great. The drive shaft moves as it should without the gear on it, but obviously without the gear and throwing on the chain I really wont know how it goes untill thats all done.
What are your thought? Keep the Blaster because I know what I got, or sell it and keep the Warrior because of the obvious pros?
Another thought is that if I do sell the Blaster, whats a fair price to ask? They really dont seem to hold their value no matter whats been done. But mine is clean and needs damn near nothing and I like it alot! Is $850 to low or high? I've seen a lot of junk Blasters on CL going for $700.
Pics of the Blaster and Warrior comming in a few minutes!
