Outside of ebay, have you ever been to an ATV auction? Sometimes there are towns, cities, counties, and states that auction off their atvs, stolen, recovered, repos and other atvs, utvs, side by sides. There are also online auctions all over the place. Just looking to see if anyone has gotten a good deal on something or has an auction they frequent.

I have.  It’s an auction for motorcycles, dirt bikes and ATVs.  It was a Police auction. Pretty cool but you can’t touch, only look so you have no clue about the engine.  I picked up a kx 250 one time that was in excellent condition for $400 bucks.   As soon as I got my hands on it I found out the engine was completely destroyed Inside. 😢never the less I managed to get the new engine for another $600 and it worked great but I have to say it was fun to be at the auction.

didnt know they existed...  that would really put me off not being able to handle the atv I was looking at buying, but I totally understand why they do that--  some jerks just want to screw up stuff and then leave without undoing whatever they did..

Here are some of the ones I was looking at online:

https://www.autoauctionmall.com/atvs

What made me think about it was I was driving out on Long Island and went by this DPW town garage. They had a fenced in area with about 20-30 atvs. I'm assuming they were impounds.

      Hi everyone,
       I often work on both ATVs and larger construction equipment, and I’m always on the hunt for solid OEM manuals—service, repair, and parts. The usual searches give a lot of random PDFs or unofficial scans that aren’t very trustworthy.
      What online sources do you all use when you need a factory manual quickly? Are there sites you’ve found that consistently provide genuine OEM content for ATVs or heavy machinery?
      I recently came across Heavy Equipment Manual, which claims to provide verified OEM service and parts manuals (covering brands like Caterpillar, Komatsu, Kubota, etc.). Has anyone here tried it, or do you have other go-to resources you’d recommend?
      I’m interested in options that are:
      ·        Fast to download
      ·        Cover both heavy equipment and ATV models
      ·        Clear on licensing and safety
      Thanks for sharing your experiences and any recommendations!

      Hey all got a Kawasaki 300 that's seen better days I'm looking to get running.  But first, I'm working on a Honda 350 ES and mainly needing where are you all finding quality parts at good prices.  Atvs are really hot items around here right now and most of the folks wanting and needing them are not familiar with working on them.  I'm looking to find a good resource for information and if it works out well pass this group along to the folks I help to get them in the know how to get the most out of their machines.  Thanks in advance.

      I have inherited an ATV and I think it was purchased in  KY, but I am in WI.  Is there a way to do an online search using the VIN or what have you to try and find the last registered owner so that I might try to get the title?
