Hello all new to the forum, this isnt your normal vs thread. I just sold my 08 kfx 450r, had it for 3years and put maybe 5tanks of gas through it, was my garage queen. Mostly ride my utilitys, but need a sport quad to take out every now and again to get my jolly's then put it up. Thats why i sold the kfx, the new thumpers just dont hold there value. Any ways its been years since ive owned a banshee or 250r and im out of the loop so to speak. I dont care whats faster, i dont care what handles better. What i care about is parts to keep them running. They both have alot of parts out there, i realize that but which is the most easily avable? Do they still make tranny parts or cases for the 250r? I know the frames are prone to cracking welds on them aswell. Same goes for the banshee, again i dont want a war. Just a simple question for my decision on an ole two stroke to turn into a blood pumping trail machine
