Welcome to the channel, I buy ATVS, Dirt bikes, and other powersports. Here we ride them, destroy them, flip them for a profit and sell them for parts. This is how I make a living full time and get to have fun with work, I show it all on the channel so you can as well.

Just gotta grease that fitting food ar new 😂
Congrats on your continued success!
Thank you!!
Hats off to you buddy....doing a similar set up here..anybody thinks its easy needs to think again lol...congrats and it looks great.
Right, this has been stressful but now that its done its worthwhile!
Congrats man The shop really looks amazing!!!!!!
Thanks bro!
I sprayed foamed just the roof of my shop. Couldn't afford to do the whole thing. It's hot though
Yea that’s no joke, I thought about just doing the roof and I’m glad I didn’t, one wall takes full sun from 3 to sundown. The exposed part of the beams inside might be hot enough to burn someone.
@@TheATVHustle you've got a great shop man!
@@TexasRedneck thanks bro!
The shop is looking great man. It’s inspiring me to keep going, anything is possible through hard work and dedication.
Thanks bud!
@@TheATVHustle You are welcome!
Man, to hear that RZR start up was insane! Working in a motorcycle dealership, I’ve seen some dust buckets come back from the dead, but man this RZR surprised me quite a bit. As a side note, as you may know from my previous comments I am beginning my journey in buying, fixing, and flipping off-road vehicles/water-crafts/2-3 wheel street vehicles, etc. I was wondering if you had any tips on where I should start business wise? My ultimate goal is to own a shop where I buy machines off marketplace, Craigslist maybe, auctions, and things like that; pretty much exactly what you do. I’m hoping to be able to get something going where I can quit my 9-5 and work for myself while gaining my freedom back. I’m really tired of this job, so I’m hungry to get this going for myself. I’m just lost right now because nobody around me does this type of stuff. Even my parents don’t understand what I’m trying to do; it’s tough not having someone to mentor me or take me under their wing while I try to figure this stuff out. I’m confused as to if I should be more focused on getting all of my business stuff set up than trying to find more projects to potentially buy, fix, and sale for a profit (which is tough within itself). Like, would I have a better chance of finding a deal through the auction if I were to get a dealer’s license? I don’t have much capital to start with, so should that be the main focus from the start? Should I solely focus on parting out what I can to create the capital for this business venture as apposed to trying to fix stuff and learn in the process? It’s so many questions lol. My main thing is finding something that could bring in income while I try to get this business rolling. I don’t get paid well at my current job, so I try to put aside as much as I can but that’s not always easy. Would you suggest to just keep saving what I can, buy projects as they appear that I can get for a good deal and make a good profit on, and keep scaling as time goes on to later in the future deal with starting a full-on business? - OR - Should I be more focused on the business side. Like getting my dealer’s license (which in return would give me dealer-only auction access where I could buy the machines wholesale), establish a name, someday secure a shop to operate out of, and the other legal things? I hope that I don’t ask too many questions in your comment section; I really don’t have anyone that is doing this business model around me that I can talk to and ask. Even the technicians that I know aren’t willing to help me either because they kinda dabble in flipping or they aren’t set up as a legitimized business but they’re keeping the cash flowing, if you know where I’m coming from lol.
I know right, this is probably the biggest project I have taken on so far aside from the ranger 800 earlier this year that I did a harness and front diff plus some other small things. It’s probably going to take a few comments to answer all your questions since I can’t see it all. I failed 3 years of high school English so I’ll do my best to make sense 😂
So it sounds like you’re exactly in the same spot. I was when I started. I was very hesitant to actually get out and start spend a bunch of time looking at street bikes online for personal use and started to notice that there was a lot of good deals on there and I could make money on them. Then I ran across. It was a Kawasaki zephyr or something like that. I bought it for $100 and still sold it for 500. And just kind of kept doing the same thing from there. I had no idea of anything about business. I thought getting the auction license was going to do real big and make me grow so fast and then when I finally got one and I could see what the stuff actually sold at those auctions it was so much money. It wasn’t even worthwhile. There sites out there that are free that you may end up paying a buyers premium on the item like hibid.com proxybid.com equipmentfacts.com that you can buy right now from but honestly, I never find the best deals at auction. It’s rare.
As far as business licensing, and all of that goes, it’s going to be very dependent on your state. Down where I am passport vehicles like ATVs side-by-side and stuff like that didn’t even used to be titled where I think states like California if you don’t have a title it’s useless. I’m not a lawyer or anything like that so I can’t really give you a whole Lotta insight there.
When I first quit my job the first time to go full-time doing this (I failed and had to go back due to poor money management) I was at a family gathering and my uncle just kinda calls me out and he’s like so I heard you quit your job real loud in front of everybody before anyone knew I quit. Most of the people in my family have always been like why don’t you just go back and get a day job? I Don’t listen to nobody and that’s pretty much how it has to be since people who are 9 to 5 guys will always think it’s better to have a J O B. I would really suggest listening to the MFCEO podcast from Andy Frisella it has helped me with that and a whole Lotta other stuff.
The best way to put it is just start whether you go out and buy $100 bike sell some parts off of it make five or $600 and then keep reinvesting that into your business and yourself. That’s pretty much what I did. Just $100 bill. I would be a lot further along if I had better money management skills, and I didn’t make so many mistakes along the way outside of the actual business.
Those lights are lit!
It definitely makes working easier!
That shit has 600+ hours on it. And has never been maintained
😂😂😂 603 hours to be exact
Yep💨🔥🔥🔥🔧🛠️🔩👌🏾✅
🔥🔥
Hey im looking for a 4 wheeler whats the cheapest one i can get used woth atleast 250cc
Probably something along the lines of a Honda recon, older Polaris or a Yamaha big bear.
@@TheATVHustle okay thank you so much
The can am rock. Wouldn't he a can am without the rock. Get use to it!
It got a little better with some miles on it but yea the can am rock is here to stay 😂
?
Both shafts should spin, the splines are so stripped that I can spin one side by hand.
The cause was the lack of lubrication hence the dry, rusty zerk fitting
Man, I’ve been enjoying binge watching this ‘Shop Vlog’ series. This past week was pretty cool. I binged watched the first 5 EPs of the series Sunday, got inspired to get my dirt bike that I didn’t want anymore running again so I could sell it, got said dirt bike running again on that Monday, and sold it that Tuesday. I was really inspired when you told me how you started out. I too have begun trying to make this dream a reality on my parents’ ‘slab of concrete patio’ I haven’t been able to find any bikes under $1,000 to get for the cheap so I can fix it up and make a profit, but I’m not giving up hope. This is only the beginning and I see what is possible through hard-work and consistency as I watch your videos. I hope to be able to do this at a similar scale as you someday. For now, I’m just going to keep trying and sharpen my skills while enjoying the series!
It’s not been easy if I make it look that way, just gotta keep going and keep buying and fixing. We moved shops over the last week so I didn’t drop a vlog but the next one should be up in the next few days as well as the kx250 hopefully running by the end of this coming week. Sometimes there is nothing to buy, don’t get desperate and pay too much. This was something I learned the hard way, I haven’t found anything worth buying in a while now so I have to look further out or wait. It really is a work with what you got that can turn into something cool. This next vlog will show how the new shop turned out and I sometimes forget how I started working on a slab at my mom’s house. Keep your head up and keep moving!
You should of gotten the mud version XMR instead of the outlander!
Why?
I like the xmr but I have a very diverse ride terrain and I like the ability to be able to go fast too. I don’t really hit much that I could need a snorkel either.
Most machines out there dont have titles as they are strictly offroad etc. how do you deal with that? any trouble parting them out and junking stuff?
I have never had an issue but my state didn’t issue titles for atvs until recently. It is very common for it to not have a title in tx/ok/la/ar
No it can not be fixed although they make plastic tanks for those
I got my Quad for over $1,000
Nice!
Actually it was an ATV
This is why I bought a cheap Chinese taotao. Kids don't know the difference, and you're not stuck with a 3k$ 90 atv if they don't end up liking it
Yea that’s a good point, my kids tear ours up anyway.
Thank you sir
Thanks for watching!
Do you know where I can get the tensioner rod and bolt?
eBay might have it but I had to buy new oem from Rocky Mountain atv
I have an 03 I'm trying to put back together. Top end, brakes, plastics, everything 😂💯👨🏿🔧
These 700 aren’t too bad to put back together, deal with the brakes before you put plastic on and it will be a little easier. I just did a top end on one about 3 weeks ago and aside from the confined space to install it was easy.
@@TheATVHustle appreciate the tips. 💯
I bought a 2013 kx250 with title for 1200 with broken camshaft.. as for that little red clamp that goes on the fuel line, I was able to find a cheap ninja 400 fuel line that had two of them on it and they swapped right over.
I ended up getting some clips from brutal parts.com he saw the video and they are the same as a brute force. I hope this will show up on google since I couldn’t find anything about it when I was looking.
I also buy and sell used auto parts on Ebay. I haven't had too many returns on the items I've sold. But I have had problems returning parts that were listed incorrect and some that the photos of the parts taken by the seller just sucked and were taken at angles hiding imperfections, dents and scratches. And to tell you the truth, it's not a very easy process to get a full refund from the sellers who hide behind the "No Returns policy. It's now came down to me not buying anymore used auto parts from Ebay unless I have no choice.
There are definitely some bad sellers out there, we always tried to take plenty of photos so it was all there but a surprising amount of people didn’t even bother to look at them.
The xtp 1000R is crazy fast n eats up the bumps well
I bet, I’ll get a chance to ride an xtp eventually to check out those shocks.
I got 1 have it have a 10 year warranty 8.0
How much costs
Mine was about $12,000
I'd part that Magnum 100%
I have already started pulling parts for another machine lol

That magnum whole front diff and axles will Interchange with the sportsman 700 /500 you have . I believe also the transmission will work on the 99 magnum 500 I know the rear shaft will work the magnum 500 . I just did all this my self on my own units
That 700 is already gone lol, I'm pretty sure the Polaris trans will all actually fit over on to other models like the ranger and 700. They are identical side by side.
I have a 87 honda 350d and it dont have spark it has a new statir and coil pack is good and new cdi box what could it be
The harness would be possible bad.
@@TheATVHustle its new
people can only help so much on line without knowing or seeing the machine!!
Hello, just found your channel and subscribed. I am thinking of selling power sports again on eBay. I used to sell like 12-years ago when I had a motorcycle shop. This video is a good idea but even the old PWC would have scrap value since it has quite a lot of aluminum. Even if it does not have much of a resale value or am I wrong in this way of thinking.
Thanks! I never put much effort into the scrap value since it’s not worth much in my area. I’m sure if it was broken down to bare aluminum it would be worth some but probably would still be worth more as a part on eBay. I always tried to get the better machines to make it more profitable and worth while.
I can understand your view cause the resale value would be higher than scrap price for sure. I was just thinking free is free. And if you have a slow time you could start scraping to keep some cash flowing.
@@Manandmachine772 that works too, a good plan would be to pull the high value parts to sell on eBay and could scrap low value.
You're not clicking the fr9nt in correctly try more times. I had this issue until I realized it was user error go in on a different angle on the front and should fit nice
I thought so at first but it was all the way in right, this is the only knockoff seat I have bought so far that didn’t fit like an oem seat though.
Called it! Cam wiped...
wow,you must be so proud!!
@@yeahright302hahaha
I only let parts sit for 24 hours or less in apple cider vinegar. Its the strongest food grade acidic vinegar you can buy. If you let it sit long enough itll etch the metal and eat it away but i guess you found that out already.
I definitely get to that point where I feel the need to sell something. Frees up space and puts money in the pocket
I knew it too I was just hoping it wasn’t since they said they had been riding it when the trans went out.
What are your top 4 best bikes you like to part out that sell good?
I liked the 96-01 yz125, the crfs 250/450, the ttr250 and the bigger xr250/400
I'm a year late but glad I found your channel.
Your just in time for some of the cool stuff i have coming!
UPS or Fedex?
This would have been through UPS, We quit using fedex years ago.

curious as to what the problems were to make you stop doing Ebay. Or if it's more so being burned out and seeing more potential for you in just flipping the machines.
I would say it is 80% just bored of selling parts and wanting to move on to flipping full time. Some of it was issues I had with eBay, but honestly it was just the push I needed to get moving towards other goals.
I’m using this same method right now!
It worked well for us over the years! I could never find the right coolers to ship in and they were expensive for big ones.
thank you man i’m looking and this helps a lot
Glad I could help
With the XTP. you get the Visco 4 lok. as well I think
I don't think all years of the XTP came with it, i could be wrong though.
I can see mine moving and spinning but its barely got oil inside so my question is how is it lubricating with only a drop of oil in the bottom. I actually drove mine around a minute and let it ran but still only enough oil in the bottom
Mine doesn't have much oil in it either.
On my drz i had a horrible time removing and installing and cnc sent me a wring or defective part. My gear shaft wouldnt go in and spin freely. They acted like would send me a new product then ignored further emails. Weeks later ordered another and it fit and was a pain to line all up to get in and tighten down. Now installed i crank and barely any oils in the bottom of the gears area.
Mine fit well the first time but i have had the same experience with a lot of the China companies, their customer service sucks.
Excuse me sir, on your opinion what is the best way to source atv and auto parts?
I don't have much experience with new parts or auto but have had some random buys at auctions for new old stock. I sourced most of our stuff used from complete machines on facebook market place.
I seem to have the best luck with keeping cash on hand and ready to pounce when fair deals pop up. You have to stay vigilant on the search. The deals don't just come to you.
How many parts are you gonna need to buy back from him for flips?
@brapplife86 One of the cool things we do with buyouts is we work with the sellers on any parts they may have overlooked or need from their former inventory. We much rather build a relationship than just a transaction. We already have a shipment headed back just as soon as we can locate the parts!
@BrutalParts I was referring to his future flip purchases. Like throwing out something then needing it month later lol
So far I already used a clutch and accidently sent him back my bag of extra Polaris bolts 😂 . Ill probably need more soon.
I sold a Ranger 500 transmission to them and bought a Ranger 500 that needs a tranny yesterday lol
Don't want to pry too much but roughly how much was the part sell out?
Love it!
Thanks!
