Looking to a used 800S, what do I need to lookout for on these to make sure it's good to go? Any years to stay away from? Power steering a big deal on these machines? I know there aftermarket to add if it doesn't have it. The problem I'm having is it seems everyone around here wants close to new or new price with or without mods (doors, windshield, etc). It's hard to justify spending $10k+ on say a used 2011+ when I can buy a new 900S without power steering from Abernathys for $12,250 OTD (farm exempt so no taxes) and not have to pay for insurance like I would with a bank loan. I know, I know, some say insurance is a must. But I'm the 7+ years I've owned a quad and had loans I've never had the need for it. Home owners insurance covers me at the house from theft/loss in fire, storm, etc.
