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.

      MY OTHER RIDE !!!!
      By oztrax
      was thinking most of us on this forum would have another ride, so to get the ball rolling...........
      MY MAX 4 6X6 2009, now this will actually go anywhere including across the water. In the 3rd photo I had gone up the river about 30 meters then climbed up the bank, 6X6 owners call it "swimming"

      Looking for Reliable Heavy Equipment & ATV Repair Manuals Online
      By roggers
      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!

      Is there a conversion for 99 beartracker rear brakes from drum to disc
      By anthonyd256
      I have a 99 Yamaha bear tracker and I have converted the front brakes from drum to disc fairly easy but I cant figure out how to convert the rear with out hacking apart the rear arm. tried to use parts from a wolverine since the rear arms look similar but the caliper mount didn't line up on the bear tracker axle. Can anyone give me any clues or has anyone successfully converted the bear tracker rear brakes. I would even purchase a conversion kit if there is one. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

      Have you ever purchased a quad from an impound auction?
      By DarkRider
      This is something I'm extremely curious about. Has anyone ever attempted to buy a quad (or any other vehicle) from an impound lot? I've always wondered if this could be a bargain, or a waste of time. Google searches do turn up some helpful results. Looks like the state of NJ holds auctions online which I'd be a bit hesitant about.
       
      My online searches haven't really turned up any results of anyone buying an ATV this way. I'd be really curious if anyone tried this, or knows someone who has. I've actually found a couple pages with online auctions for my state, but none had ATVs.
