Broken Teeth Productions Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 Ive been searching craigslist and other sites for decent Banshees. And I came across this.. http://phoenix.craigslist.org/cph/mcy/1084741160.html Where can I get methonal for this bike, or should I just switch it over to alcohol, and what would that cost me? Can I launch the ol' moto way or would that be too stressful on the lock out? Whats the normal turn around for powder coating? Ive raced motocross for about 7 years now. This year everything started falling into place...but I had to break my colar bone twice in 3 months... And my mom doesnt want me to race anymore. So this is propably going to turn into the next big hobby lol. Any help would be greatfull Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you guys think look better, white frame and purple plastics or white plastics on a purple frame? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RJ65 Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 Methanol and alcohol is the same thing. A 7 mill cub is a 443cc. The second add the guy is talking out his ass LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ65 Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 If your in the Phoenix area the best place for meth/alch is Speedway race fuels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Teeth Productions Posted April 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 Thanks guys. Now I just got to sell the 400 lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheefreak Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 7500 is overpriceced in my opinion. Keep your eyes open, there are plenty of deals to be had out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it is but its super clean. I found this one but it just looks ugly...no plastics. But it screams http://phoenix.craigslist.org/nph/mcy/1113028621.html I like this one. Just more set up towards duning. Every one in my camp sucks or drives a sand rail..and I cant stand waiting for people to catch up. http://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/rvs/1072794149.html Hes selling just the motor, and its a 4mil Ill call him and see what he wants for the whole bike http://phoenix.craigslist.org/nph/rvs/1108322181.html I forgot to say but where looking for ones that run about 6-8 grand, run on alcohol and makes pretty high hp. If we do get that 7mil where instantly tearing it down and sending it of to PC. Where going to do that with any banshee we get Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheefreak Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 I hate to say this, but it would be well worth paying the membership fee at PS just to put out a wanted add for a bike if you are looking to spend that kinda cash. Trust me, for 8 grand, you can get a bike that is a lot faster than that 7 mill and you won't have to tear it apart for powder.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found a Cheetah motor for 2500 And a chassie with all this for 2800 But something doesnt seem right about the cost...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
