Hey Blue,I haven't had the chance to look at that 98 SRX yet.The guy went to Florida for a week.Was supposed to call me before he left and his dad would let me go look at it,but nothing.So I will wait.Went to my Yamaha dealer to pu some parts and asked them about the 98.Said they were good sleds and he remembers them selling 48 of them for the season.The book value they told me was $2400,but said no one would sell them that cheap.Talked to his mechanic and asked hime how much he would pay.Said anywhere fromm $3200 to$3500 ,but must be in good shape.If it is beat up and dirty or rusty,said to offer $3000.So I will wait,I am in no hurry anyways,got a sled to ride now.Maybe in the summer will be able to pu a good deal on a 2001 SRX for cheap.or a 98 for cheaper $$$$.
