I get where you a going, but this guy blows out units like this every day. Have bought from him before--- ATV, and side by side, and prices are what they are. Others in this very thread have dealt with Harold...... BUT like you say, I might just need to reprove it to myself and get a new toy! LOL!

There is a dealer in MD that advertises similar deals, and then its all of the nonsense fees and charges that take it right back to 9k. This is not that.

I mean if you are in the low 7's, it is a just an incredible deal for the bike IMO. I do feel for members out west who dont get such breaks, then again, we get pounded when trying to resell down the road so I guess it all works out! Keep the threads coming, such cool builds here!!!

Depends where you live I suppose. We have to pay tax and license in the beautiful state of California. The freight and prep we can get around....but that’s about it

We can skip tax and rock just a cert of origin. Makes for some cheap rides. That said, when registering a side by side we gotta pay tax...

I went with race tech, just because the shock spring is blue, and not yellow like factory connection

Yeah I replaced the brake pin was grooved already and installed braided line. The braided line is what made it way better for me doesn't drag like it used to.

I just ordered a set for my 16-18 from him after seeing them in this thread. They look awesome on your motorcycle, I may order another set because I will be picking up a 19 in the next 3-6 months!

Jeez good thing I didn’t order one. They just made a post on Instagram saying they should be back in stock next week. Who knows how true that is though
