    I run the Holeshot tires too. That quad is way over the top. More then I'd ever need. I do ride sport and would love to have one like that but I would never pay that kind of coin for one. I know of people who have spent that much and more and they never get close to what it's worth. Sorry to say but my guess is he'll be lucky to get much over 12K for it.

    Gawd, I'd love to have that suspension. If he decides to part it out let me know.
