Offer it to him, maybe $700, considering the charging system can be costly to fix....

If you enjoy breaking down in the middle of the night in the middle of nowhere when it is -10 degrees buy this sled. Electrical problems can be the biggest headache to repair. If you are going to buy an older sled, buy one without EFI.

It doesn't matter what the track cost. That doesn't make the sled worth any more money to you. It is a sled with electrical problems. I think you are crazy to buy it at all but I can tell that you have already made up your mind and you are going to pay him the price he is asking for it. All I can say is good luck because you are going to need it!

$600 NO MORE. As far as the charging system, check that the fuse to the stator is not blown. the look elswhere. the best way to test this is start it up and then disconnect the battery. If it quits, its either not getting any juice or the fuse is blown( it's a 10 amp automotive fuse).v If you sdo buy this sled you can pm me, I have one and I love it.
