Here's my opinion about the particular bike your looking at, as well as buying any type of automobile, vehicle used. I don't like it when a previous owner mods something out, especially how hard this bike was. I may be wrong, but it's a psychological thing. It just means to me they pushed that entire bike to it's complete limit, and beat on it hard. I don't know much about ATV mods, but I'm guessing if your very knowledgeable with them, and know how to work on bikes then maybe it's OK, but I when I was looking for my warrior I wouldn't consider a heavily modded bike.
As for the warriors, I have very limited experience with riding bikes, I've mostly only ridden utility atvs, except for the warrior and a 300ex. I really like the warrior though. I don't do any crazy jumps and wheelies whatsoever, I like the bike for fields and light trail riding. It's nice having the power to get on it on the straights in the fields and dirt roads. I believe other people when they say they are better bikes, or the warrior is dated, but for what I paid for mine, and what I do with it, I'm very happy with it. Its the main sport bike I've ridden, and when I compare it to Mojaves, 300exs and 400exs I still like it the best for some reason. That's just my opinion though.
