Good deal for two?
I just took delivery of a 2005 Sportsman 700 EFI camo and a 2004 Magnum 330 for a total of $3000. Both have been riddeen hard in the woods have a few dents like a bent front bar end and headlight broken off, one needs new floorboards. Several body panel fasteners are broken or missing. Do guys replace the stock fasteners or go with something else. Do you replace stock floorboards on a Magnum or is there something aftermarket that is sturdier?
They both run great, everything checks out mechanically.
They have 1200 and 1400 miles. Is this high for bikes of this vintage? How many miles do these bikes last?
It seems like still a very good deal. Thoughts?

The hours are only in the 200-300 range. Is that good or bad with that mileage?

Thanks for the info. The 2005 Sportsman 700 EFI has a Detroit locker rearend. Was this optional or on all of them?
It makes a lot of heavy clicking noise only when I turn left. Is this normal?
Thanks
