Buying a Used Polaris ATV On eBay

If you have considered purchasing a Polaris ATV you probably know that it can be an expensive endeavor. ATV's range in price and the hobby can become expensive fast. If you want the newest model with all the bells and whistles, expect to pay a high price. However, if you want to get into ATV riding for less, it is possible to buy a used Polaris ATV on eBay for a much lower price and still have just as much fun. You should not think that buying a used ATV will compromise safety or quality.

If you research the ATV before you buy it and know what to look for, you can find a perfectly safe and operable ATV for a fraction of the price of a new one. This is great for beginners who want to test the waters before they invest in a brand new machine, or for people who want to experience the fun of ATV riding but do not want to pay a premium. Some people like to tinker with their ATV's and customize them. Buying a used ATV is perfect for this as you can find many used parts to create a one of a kind ATV.

The downside to buying a used ATV is that you may not always know what you are getting. This is especially true if you but a used ATV online. You cannot inspect the ATV before you purchase it and have to rely solely on the description provided. Using eBay offers you a great buyer protection program. You can find great deals online but you have to be sure to ask the right questions and get important information. If you want to buy the best used ATV you can, you should follow these tips.

The safest bet in used Polaris ATV's are models made within the last few years. It is possible to find an older model that is in great condition, but if you are new to ATV's or have not done extensive research it is best to stick to models that were made fairly recently. Recent models will have less miles and will have the least amount of wear overall compared to older models. They also require less maintenance than older models.

You can find great used ATV's from private sellers, but you have to be sure that you know what to look for to determine quality. If you do not know much about repairing ATV's, you are better off purchasing from someone who does.

Buying a used ATV on eBay can be a way to save thousands over what you would pay at a dealer. If you are going to buy from a private seller, make sure they have a good rating if they are an eBay seller or they have references if they are a local seller.

No matter where you buy your used ATV, make sure you do some research on prices and know what to expect to pay. You should also know what to look for and how to identify an ATV that has been well taken care of as opposed to one that has been neglected and will require work.

Grand Marais man named 2008 Youth ATV Safety Instructor of the Year (May 29, 2009)

 

Richard “Dick” Parker of Grand Marais has been named the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources’ 2008 Youth ATV Safety Volunteer Instructor of the Year.

Parker has worked closely with Cook County Community Education, the Cook County ATV Club and local conservation officers to organize youth ATV safety training in the area since 2004.

“Dick’s friendly, patient and thorough teaching style leaves a lasting impression on his many students,” said 2nd Lt. Leland Owens, DNR Enforcement Division recreational vehicle coordinator.

Owens said Parker’s knowledge and input have been invaluable to people in Cook County, Grand Portage, the DNR, and the U.S. Forest Service as they work to establish a safe, sustainable ATV trail system in Superior National Forest, and the Grand Portage and Pat Bayle state forests.

“Without the help of people such as Dick Parker, the task of providing ATV safety education by this agency would be significantly greater,” Owens said. “The DNR thanks him and all the other volunteers and organizations who work to make ATV riding safer in Minnesota.”



All-terrain vehicles have undergone major changes in recent years, with electronic fuel injection, power steering, and independent suspensions all being offered on a variety of units. Fisherman and hunters have benefited, as stronger, more powerful, easier riding quads are now on the market. The Polaris Ranger RZR is one of the best ATV for the outdoorsman to come along in a long time. For 2007, Polaris took its 800cc engine and built one of the most functional ATVs ever.. The new RZR comfortably carries two riders and up to 300 pounds of gear. It's miserly on gas, letting you drive for 200 miles over rocks, mud, and logs on a tank of gas. And it's fast. If the trail isn't too treacherous, you'll get there almost as quick as you would in a Jeep Wrangler.The acceleration is invigorating, and the front and rear suspensions won't beat you or your rider into kidney failure. You can adjust the steering wheel and seating system. A T-bar under the dashboard offers stability for the passenger in rough terrain. Another thoughtful consideration is the 50-inch-wide footprint, making this unit legal to use on most ATV trails where wider side-by-sides are prohibited. (Give Minnesota DNRtime, they'll figure a way to ban them.) I used one of these while deer hunting this fall. One great unit.With a RZR's speed and traction, you can climb large rocks, blast through mudholes, and absolutely eat a trail alive. When the snow and ice came we were glad we were on the RZR and not in a 4WD truck as the hills got very slippery.

Some great hunting and fishing opportunities exist in the Chippewa National Forest and one of the best ways to get back to some of the best spots is an ATV or Jeep Wrangler. Be sure you are familar with the laws pertaining to off-road use before you go or it could cost you! The following is from the Minnesota DNR.
Chippewa National Forest ORV Policy
The Chippewa National Forest is implementing a November 2007 OHV Road Travel Access decision. This policy applies only to Chippewa National Forest system lands, trails and roads. Low standard roads are Forest Service roads
planned, constructed, and maintained for future management use. They are managed for use by high clearance vehicles. Passenger car traffic is not encouraged.
High standard roads are Forest Service roads managed for passenger car traffic. Specific high standard roads are open for ORV use. Please show
caution when sharing a road with passenger vehicle traffic. To locate Forest Service system roads and trails a free Chippewa National Forest Motorized Vehicle Use map is available showing numbered roads on the Forest open to ORVs. The map is available at national forest offices in Blackduck, Cass Lake, Deer River and Walker.
Off Road Vehicle
Where Not to Ride
• Cross-country motorized travel off of system roads and trails is prohibited.
• Big game retrieval and other ORV use off system roads and trails such as bear baiting or trapping, is prohibited.
• All roads open to ORVs will be temporarily closed during the spring break-up period between March 15 and May 1 each year.
• About 110 miles of road open to ORVs will be affected by seasonal closures to protect habitat for endangered, threatened or sensitive species.

Minnesota's North Shore
The Red Dot ATV Trail is one of favorite fall rides. The colors along the North Shore of Lake Superior are great and the salmon fishing at Tettegouche State Park can be outstanding in the fall. You have not fished until you have caught a salmon on flyfishing equipment and Tettegouche is your best bet at a 20+ lb salmon. Give it a try.

Red Dot ATV Trail



The Red Dot ATV Trail, located in northeastern Minnesota, connects the towns of Beaver Bay and Silver Bay and runs through the Palisade Valley Recreation Unit of Tettegouche State Park. This trail now connects with the Moose Walk/Moose Run ATV Trail, a 26-mile trail system. The Red Dot ATV Trail offers great weekend riding with camping accessible from the trail, near Finland.
