To the original question, I wouldn't hesitate to buy a used machine without warranty. If it's in good condition then I wouldn't worry about it. I've had 3 Honda ATVs and just bought a used 500. Never had an issue with the ATVs and I'm comfortable with the 500 without having history with it.
From my experience with ATVs they survive just about anything. You're going to scuff them up, but they are ATV/UTVs and will get scuffed up but unless you really ram them into a tree or something they are designed to take a lickin and keep on tickin. The platform is solid.
My 2 pennies.
