Shags450 Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Hey guys whats up. I sold my 06 yfz450 and ended up getting a banshee.. and wow is this thing slow lol. (2nd banshee my first was a 99 with a cool head and basic other mods, reeds/ pipes.) Anyways I got a near stock 2006 banshee, has fmf pipes. my goals.. 1/8 mile drag quad. Right now I have 2500$ cash I wanna drop into the banshee to make it track ready.. im just not sure where to start lol. Goals are 6's in the 1/8th I dono if I want to start with suspension, or just go ahead and start with motor work and go with suspension later. I dont wanna buy mods and not be happy and HAVE to upgrade in 2 months, Im also doing all the work myself. Also not wanting to spend more then 5000$ total in mods. (within the first year of course LOL) Opinions!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2slow350 Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 I would just go ahead and keep the bike the way it is and save your 5000 up in a year and buy a banshee that will run in the 6's... You can buy alot of bike now a days for 5000... JMO !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can buy alot of bike now a days for 5000... JMO !! That would probably be the smart thing to do.. but I got the banshee that I dont like LOL, (I liked my 450 alot better.. its better in every aspect except drag IMO) So my options, make this bike a drag bike or sell And I also wanna say I built my bike and didnt buy it!
