Hey guys, I have been looking at a few places that have leftover 2011 850x2's. We already have a 2006 500x2 that is currently torn down to the frame as I am going to have the frame, a-arms, bed frame and various other parts powdercoated. It has been an excellent ATV, 7,800 very trouble free miles and it still runs great, just needs some TLC.
Anyway, I have decided to pick up another one to use at the farm as we can certainly use it. I am looking at the 2011 850x2's and I have found some that are new leftovers, but these dealers are asking the original MSRP of $10,499 on a three year old leftover unit? I understand that they are not made any more, but this seems ridiculous to me. Am I wrong in thinking this? What do you guys think would be a good price to negotiate on? I would have to have it shipped to Dallas, but I am willing to do that, I am just not going to pay MSRP or anywhere close on a 2011 leftover ATV, that just strikes me as crazy. I am not in a hurry so if I have to wait for a little while to find a good used one I will. I need to sell my 2006 FJR1300 first anyway although that will not be hard to do this time of the year! So what do you guys think?
