I would recommend that you give the guys out at don's speed parts a call as they'll be able to give you a good acurrate value for it.. I know that they are blowing 08 M8's out right now at 10G

I have an 05 and it has been a very good sled check for cracks in the near the foot well. This will tell you if it has been jumped hard. I would sell you mine if intrested it is in mint. Have to clean out the garage 5 sleds is to many.

If his bars are loose that should be really easy to fix.. Tell him to tighten up the bolts that mount the steering hoop and the two nuts that hold the hoop to the bars (bolts are molded right in to tank.. It is a fairly common thing but easy to solve..

I have rode with a guy that has the 06 or 07 M7 ? (not sure on the year) and it is a very good sled and this is coming from a Doo guy!!! Of course he has rode sleds since he was knee high to a grasshopper so he knows a thing or too about riding a sled.

I think you miss understood me.. The parts that need tightened up are all to do with the steering post.. They are bolts that hold the steering post to the steering hoop and where the steering hoop mounts to the bulkhead.. It should be 4 bolts and 2 nuts.

Good day. I have an 06 M7 and the only problem i have is that it uses more fuel than my 08 M1000. Other than that, it is an excellent sled.
