esterelbanshee Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 Last night I took my Banshee for a good rip. The local trails were groomed the day before and hadn't been used at all as far as I could tell. They were smooth as glass. I was riding balls out in 4th hitting all the apexes sideways kinda like a rallye driver when I misjudged one and clipped the apex with the front tire. This was enuff to toss me off the bike and send the Banshee spinning in the air twice before it came down upside down narrowly avoiding me. The only damage were some badly bent handle bars and my fukin ego. Oh ya, my ribs are killing me and probably cracked. Hehe. At least shee started up when I flipped her back over. I ordered some new bars today so I'm feeling much better about the whole thing. I wish someone had caught that one on video. Damn it hurts when I laugh.

esterelbanshee Posted March 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Chez nous c'est plein de trails. J'habite sur le Lac Masson alors je suis toujours entre les trails puis le lac. Je connais pas les trails a Laval mais il ya toujours les pistes de Skidoo par la. Ici durand la semaine on est souvent sur ces pistes. Wow it hurts. I'm lucky I didn't do worse damage. My buddy is saying that I shouldn't ride like that but what other way is there? There's no feeling like being sideways at warp factor 9 hitting apexes just perfectly. Ride on brothers and sisters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huey73 Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 Glad you're ok! My wife was the first to wipe my Banshee out. Rolled it on a corner at thanksgiving and has to have surgery on her shoulder( torn rotator cuff). She says she's getting back on the Banshee as soon as she can. Take care of yourself!
