59bisquik Posted May 29, 2011 Report Share Posted May 29, 2011 The wife called me and told me she found a good deal on a Banshee. It had a fresh top end, nice plastics and even some port work and works shocks. Long story short, everytime we go out, she spends the majority of the time riding mine! So now its make the choice of give her mine and build this one up the way I want it, or build this similar to mine so she will like it...decisions, decisions! Needs some serious cleaning and I will have to get some better pics after I get it out of the truck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

59bisquik Posted May 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 Thanks guys! Could anybody identify those pipes and silencers? He claimed they were old Tommeys. My other Banshee has T5's and its stamped right into them. These have nothing on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brownie Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 Look to me like some old answer pipes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My other Banshee has T5's and its stamped right into them. These have nothing on them. The silencers are definetely NOT Toomeys, they look like maybe FMF or Answer. Old Toomeys have nothing on them, T5s were the first to be embossed with an insignia. Edited May 30, 2011 by bansheesandrider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont think I will be getting too many pics of her on the bike any time soon! However, just to entertain you... here is a pic of her on her Tecate 3. Here is some pics after I cleaned it up a bit, chopped the fenders and pulled a bunch of stickers off of her. Starting to look like a Banshee now!

59bisquik Posted May 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 She actually got me into the sport. She has been riding at Pismo and Glamis since she was about 3 according to her folks. Hence the love for Kawi 3 wheelers. I have a great pic of her in about 1981 on her 70 Honda ATC at Pismo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
