Hey all. I'm looking for my first ATV and a blaster seems perfect. I considered a TRX200 but I think I'll have more fun with the 2 stroke blaster. I like how easy to work on it looks. I'm 5'10 140 and from what I understand blaster will carry me alright.
I have $1000 to spend, budget is tight right now but from what I've read that should be enough to get something running and reliable.
I've also considered buying something with a problem and fixing it. That brings me to this:

If I could get a good enough price on it, how big of a risk is this? Do you advise fixing up something broken for cheap, or just spending more and trying to find something that is ready to go? That seems like it would be easier but I don't want to turn down a great deal.
I made a post in the wanted section as well, in case someone is local and has a reliable machine within my budget.
Thanks for any help, I really appreciate it.
