Era / Decade
2004-2013 (Based on body style and decals, this model ran mostly unchanged for this decade)
Material
Steel frame construction, high-impact plastic body panels, vinyl seat, and rubber pneumatic tires.
Condition
Good. The unit appears complete but shows typical aesthetic wear for a farm/utility vehicle. Plastics are faded (oxidized), and there is light surface rust on the rear rack and chain.
Demand Level
Strong. Entry-level, name-brand ATVs hold value exceptionally well and sell quickly in Spring and Fall.
Resale Value
Estimated Resale Value
$1,200 (Low/Non-running) - $1,800 (Mid/Running) - $2,400 (High/Excellent condition with title)
Estimated Retail Value
$3,399 - $3,699 (Original MSRP depending on year/trim)
Comparable Sales
Recent sales for running Grizzly 125s range from $1,500 to $2,200 on Facebook Marketplace depending on how 'crisp' the plastics look and tire tread depth.

Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, or ATV-specific forums. Local pickup is essential due to size and weight.
Selling Tips
Wash and use a plastic restorer (like SC1) to bring back the shine to the green fenders. Ensure the battery is charged and the carb is clean before showing. Mention if you have the Title/Certificate of Origin, as this significantly increases value.
