Last but not least, make sure everything functions properly. Parents do not want to spend money on a machine they feel their kid will get hurt on and adult shoppers will turn around and run from a partially working rig if they know what’s good for them. Check all the switches and buttons. If you have a light out, just fix it. It may not seem like you’re getting your return on the small investments, but it could mean the difference between selling your machine or just having it sit there.

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.
