Hi folks, been lurking here on and off for a few years. My brother has a '05 900 that has served
him well, so I am about to take the plunge.
I've found a 2013 1100 with 600 hrs, used on a farm. Mainly hauling trash, hay, fence work...light
duty stuff. It was owned by a fairly wealthy family, that maintained it thru the dealer. All records are available, and it has no major repair history. The only added accessories that I have noticed is a radio/cd player. It is extremely clean. Tires aren't the mudding, off-road variety and look to be about mid life. So they match the time on the machine.
I will use it to do the same kind of things. Maybe a little wood hauling, and dragging logs and stuff out of the yard. I was thinking of buying a new X series, but am a little shy of first year or so off a new model. Like to let them get the kinks worked out.
Price is great I think at below 14k. I've seen older 900s for almost the same money.
What things do I need to look for and look out for during the inspection and test drive ?
Live just north of B'ham AL on couple hundred of mostly wooded acres.
Thanks, and I really feel like I know alot of the regulars around here after reading for the past
3-4 years.
