Default Is this a good deal?

I am thinking about getting an 05 grizzly 660. It is all stock. It has around 200 miles. It is also the camo one of that makes any difference. It's $4200 is that a good deal?

If it really only has 200 miles on it and has been kept out of the elements then it's a steal. I would check for leaks or any other abuse though. May also want to see where it was serviced and check to see if they are actual miles.

Thanks and it only has 200 miles. Also he has a set of mudlites on itp rims with 30 miles on them for an extra 500. I am new to atving so shoudl I pay the extra 500 or will the stock tires be fine?

It sounds like a good deal to me.......If it hasn't been wrecked or abused!
The extra tires and wheels if only 30 miles on them probably are worth the $500, their value new was around $700-$800!
IMO...Go for it!

Yeah, it was only used to cruise around the farm. It hasn't been on trails or mudding etc. Unfortunately I will just have to get the stock tires since I am tight on money. The only "blemish" is one very small dent in the front rack which was touched up and you can barely see it. Everything else is in A+ condition.

i'd jump on it, after a thorough test ride and inspection, of course.

Go for it before someone else does. I don't know what type of riding you plain on doing, But the stock tires would be great for now. You can always upgrade later. The seller may even still have them later and you can see if you can get even a better deal on them. Keep us posted.

Wonder what they'd say if you held out 4500 cash in front of them for all of it?

I'd take all the cash anyway, cause it is a good deal, but hey, you never know.
