Hey guys,
I'm new to the forum. I've got a Honda Rincon which I use for hunting and ice fishing, but i"m looking for another machine so my wife can go with and do a little trail riding. I'm thinking a blaster is about perfect. I'm looking at CL in Minneapolis are there are two available right now that may interest me. I'm looking for some feedback on pricing and which mods are good and which are not so good.
Machine #1 looks clean and he is asking $750. Looks mostly stock with the front wheels turned inside out.
Machine #2 has some mods and extras which in the little research I have done seem like maybe they were in good taste.
Thoughts on these two machines, the mods and the pricing? I'm looking to keep my investment low, but if I'm going to end up modding it anyhow, i would pay a little more for one that has already been modded. I'm not in a hurry and i like projects so I could just keep watching for a cheap one with a blown engine or something this spring. Thanks for any input.

2000 Yamaha Blaster, in good shape, Bought it for my wife, and as we had a baby, she said she won't ride it again! It has sat sense last year because she lost the key(only thing wrong with it!)
200cc Oil Injected (2 cycle) 6 speed (No Revers) Only has a Kick start!
I'm asking $750 or best offer!
