Jtyler1997 Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 Hi im new to the site and I have been looking to get a banshee for a few months now. I came across one about a week ago. I asked the guy about it and he said it threw a rod through the cases. The rest of it is in pretty rough shape. It has been sitting outside for a few years. It is all stock other than fmf pipes which are rusty. The guy said it is for sale but he never really told me what he wanted for it. I was wondering what is the most I should pay for a banshee in that condition? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phelps Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 100-500 depending on what is there that is salvageable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nieskes Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 I would offer $200 and see what he says, sounds like he did not give two shits about it. I would be looking at the frame before anything. Post up some pics of this thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomas h. Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 Some of the deals I see people get would blow that thing out of the water if you got it for free. look for good port and top of the line pipes for under 2k. I was in your position traded some labor for mine and still wish I found a deal because it all adds up but you have to start somewhere good luck:) If the reg is up to date 300.00 max in shotty shape. Craigs list by my area turned up 1998 banshee 700.00 running pics looked good too with bills pipes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There didnt appear to be any visible cracks or bends in the frame. The plastics are faded and dirty but are salvagable. Tires arent in that great of shape either due to sitting. Im not sure of the year but I think it might be an 01 judging from the colors-white fenders and black tank cover and radiator cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shakar Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 (edited) http://bansheehq.com...showtopic=73599 cant allways tell from the plastics but look at the 10 digit on the frame and looky here for the year goodluck Edited December 27, 2011 by shakar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jtyler1997 Posted December 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 Thanks for the replies everyone. I think I should be able to get it for between $300-$500. I dont plan on getting it right now though.the guy that has it isnt really trying to sell it but says its for sale. Ill probably get it when I have some extra money in a few months.
