dave5.0 Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 I've been kicking the idea around for a while now and I think now is the time. I'd like to have a 700 Raptor but a YFZ might be nice also. Probalby want to keep it Yamaha. Never know though. I think my title says my frame is a 93, The cases came out of an '87 I had along time ago. I just went through the motor and replaced crank bearings, clutch basket, clutch, clutch hub, all the seals, and some little parts and pieces. It's got +3+1 Lone Star front arms, +2 Ebay swinger, YFZ front shocks, Passion 12 port 4mill, all the other goodies to go with that. 35mm A/S, coolhead w/stroker domes, VF3s, Boss intake, a bunch of other stuff that if interested I can go into further. I don't have it for sale, trade only. Unless you want to give me a stupid amount of money for it. Please dont ask what I want for it. I don't need to sell it just looking for something different. I can get some pics up later if someone wants some. Just checking interest right now. I have a possible deal on a YFZ already just thought I would do a little fishing and see if anything else is out there. Let me know. Thanks.

KlotzBanshee Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 I have a friend with an '05 Raptor 660r w/ Yoshi pipe, low hours, very clean. He has been thinking about getting rid of it since he hurt his back. We have tossed around the idea of building a drag only shee for him in the future, he may be interested in a trade.

That was a fun trip. We should do it again sometime. I have a friend with an '05 Raptor 660r w/ Yoshi pipe, low hours, very clean. He has been thinking about getting rid of it since he hurt his back. We have tossed around the idea of building a drag only shee for him in the future, he may be interested in a trade. I'm actually working on a couple of deals for 450s at the moment. If one of them doesn't pan out I might be interested in the Raptor. Kinda like to have a fuel injected bike though. But I'm trying to keep my options open.

05.Banshee.SE Posted September 15, 2009 Report Share Posted September 15, 2009 Keep the Shee, buy a 4 stroke. You'll be happy you did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave5.0 Posted September 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Keep the Shee, buy a 4 stroke. You'll be happy you did. This sounds like the beginning of every ad about somebody wanting to get rid of their Banshee. I've already got a 4 stroke. 2 actually. That's part of the reason I want another one. I want one faster. I'm tired of going to the airport to get gas, tired of spending half the day trying to get the jetting right when the temps drop 10 degrees, tired of carrying a case of spark plugs so I can ride with my kid, tired of using 3 gallons of gas in an hour of riding, all the wonderful stuff that we think is cool when we first get one of these things. I've had about 10 years of it and I'm ready for a change. The interesting thing is riding it back to back with my Z400 in the dunes made me want a bigger 4 stroke. I would have thought it would make me want to keep the Banshee. Not so much. The Banshee ran the whole time and the Suzuki broke and I still liked the 4poke better. That's where I'm at. Worst case is I get another one if I miss it. Stock ones are dime a dozen anymore. Don't see that happening though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave5.0 Posted September 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 What: You going to leave us now? Pics damn it!! I'll still be around. I'm lookig for another one already. I need one like you have sitting in your garage. I want to do a little sleeper drag bike. I want something kinda ratty though. That way it's cheap. I think I have a pic or two. Nothing special. Pretty cookie cutter. Looks like every other white LTR out there. Fun to ride though. No more than I've rode it it hauls ass. Fires right up and idles nice. Instant throttle response. Nice.
