Hello. I am willing to buy TRX 420 4x4...
But I have some questions to advanced users...
1. What to check when buying it
2. It is 2007 year - and offer is for 3000 USD. Is price ok
3. It has 550 miles on it. Is it much for ATV or no?
4. There is one more offer - same price for RWD. should i go with RWD or 4x4?
5. What else should i know when buying it...

Here is a pic of advert for 4x4...3000 USD (including winch)


And here is RWD... for same price - as is.. no other things.


Please help me with advice.
And overall info would be good - are these ranchers good. do they brake a lot if taken good care of.
Yes and main question - is 550 miles much on ATV. i dont know engine hours - that' s bad i know. Maybe there is hour counter on panel? Is there a way to check?
And if there is - how much is much :D when better not to buy than buy.

Thanx in advance.

The pictures of the machine you are looking at look very clean. It looks like the previous owner took great care of it. The miles are just fine and the price is right. Make sure it has had it's regular oil changes and that they used motorcycle oil designed for WET clutches. The biggest mistake people make is that they put standard oil in these machines which really goofs up the wet clutch. Check the wear on the tires. The Rancher is a GREAT machine!

Thanx for your comment. FYI - pictures are from 2 different machines.
Both are same price. Upper is 4x4. But in the picture looks not so perfect. Lower is RWD - same price. I went to check it - it really looks great.
But tomorrow i am going to check this 4x4 and f-course priority is for 4x4 ;)
Worst experience in my life!

On The half way - to pick up the my rancehr - the owner called me and said - somebody offered me more money and i sold to him. Sorry.

:mad::mad::mad:

I am still so mad and would kick his ass if seen!

Since it was the only one normal offer here... now i come to you with new question.
Is there soem guys in USA - near the east coast - who are dealing with ATVs
Who could organize shipping - load it ino container to Europe...
And for normal prices. Please let me know if you have any idea!
I have decided to bring one myself from USA

Please Help Me on This one...
Thanx

Ebay is a good place to start looking. If I were you I'd make sure to try and send a money order for a lot more than the price and then ask them to give you the difference.
seeing how you got internet access..contact honda themselves..and order you a rancher 4x4..find out how much it would cost you to have them send one to you ?..also..ebay is another option if you can afford the shipping..that won't come cheap..not to have a atv shipped from usa to you..for that price..you may as well order from honda..lol.

Yes - i was thinking of that but our local honda dealers are asking 10000USD for new rancher. It feels like not fear - when for example US has the price ~ 5000 USd.. :(
This sucks! I'd be angry too.

I'd be willing to help you get your hands on an American machine, but I live in Nebraska (middle of the country). It would cost a bit more to ship.
im thiking 3000 is a fair price/the miles on it aint nuthing iv got 15000 miles on mine/shes starting to get tired.mostly because i swamped it in a river//really tough on them//if cared for you would have a wheeler for a long time.
