My brothers buddy has this broken down AVT that he has sitting in his shed. He doesn't want it anymore and was just going to get rid of it. I told him I was interested in it for the tires and other parts. Guess how much he's gonna sell it to me for......Fifty Bucks!
Today, my brother and I took off the plastic fenders and the seat to do some cleaning. It was covered in dried mud and 3 of the tires are flat. I'm not sure if they can be fixed, but they are pretty low on tread.
After some spray washing, it turns out that this ATV has 3 suspesion springs and shocks that are good, a decent frame to build off of and last but not least a nicely sized CVT! Ineed I hit the jackpot, I am quite pleased with this purchase.
It's just a matter of getting rid of the corroded wire, draining the brake fluid and getting the parts I want cleaned of rust and mud.
My street-legal electric go-kart is begining to take shape!
w00t!
