Top 10 Tips for Selling Your ATV

Bring Back the Stock Exhaust

This can be debated all day and while some kids will really enjoy your slip-on exhaust, a reasonable buyer may look at stock or non-modified exhaust as more appealing. Especially if they think this machine has been abused by your trail raging habits. As well, aftermarket parts add very little value to a machine and generally bring more cash when sold separately.

  • Great story. I just considered buying an additional used quad, but bought new instead. I would add: if there are any parts of your bike you don't think are up to snuff, have them identified by competent dealer, and if you don't get them fixed, immediately point them out to the prospective buyer. I looked at a used Rincon that didn't shift right. Owner knew it, but didnt know what the problem was and I wasn't going to find out after I purchased it. If the prospective buyer wants to have a dealer/repair facility give it the once over, oblige them. Refusing will make the buyer think you have something to hide. Bottom Line Up Front: Be truthful in everything related to your sale.
