06BCBANSHEE Posted March 20, 2013 Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 I really hate the bumper I am running. Cant decide what would look better on my banshee. The PRM baja powdercoated black is about $130 shipped. Anyone have pics of this with cut front plastics? Duncan racing is $169 shipped. I do like the Duncan but not a fan of the chrome, and wish the tubing was a little beefier looking. was also thinking of maybe painting my grill black, or a black chrome? dont wanna ruin it if I dont like it tho lol really dunno what would look better. Opinions and pics welcome!! thanks guys also running dirt bike fat bars, +2 stem and black ASV levers not installed yet pic of my front end pic of my old grill painted black Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheerider11 Posted March 20, 2013 Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 Nastyracing on here runs a Duncan bumper. It's all about looks with that thing. Don't expect it to handle hitting a tree. They look great tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
06BCBANSHEE Posted March 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 Ya thats why I think im leaning more towards the PRM Baja, looks beefy as hell, looks like it would be great for knocking small trees down trail riding lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
06BCBANSHEE Posted March 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 IMS-ROLL makes one similar to the Duncan but is powder or regular. Search for it http://www.hsdracing.com/scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=111 Hmmmm ya that ones pretty nice too, would love to see it mounted. almost looks like it would look better if it was a little wider looking tho. damn more choices lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
06BCBANSHEE Posted March 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 starting to like the IMS-Roll alot tho, Im sure it looks wider in person than the crappy pics im finding on google. Thanks man. Good price too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenyboy Posted March 20, 2013 Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 I wouldn't personally paint the grill, the top photo looks better with the shiny one. Breaks the colour up a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

06BCBANSHEE Posted March 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 I think im gonna get the IMS..., i like they style and probly no one else has one which is cool as well. Just ordered a black used set of fullbore rear plastics for $125. So this bumper is gonna have to wait a bit. Anyone kno if I can use the heat gun method with black plastics? Or hould i stick with some meguires plastic/scratch x? Thanks guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nastyracing Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 Duncan racing bumper FTW. I have it on the front of ever single one my bikes. I powdered this on black to be different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickedcarbine Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 Just gotta consider what you want the bumper to look like and what type of abuse it needs to handle. The guys at Duncan made that bumper because the rules said they needed it, not to look nice or handle abuse. It just had to be there and in their mind they wanted it as light and minimalistic as possible. It won't take much abuse. The PRM is built out of necessity and it is for taking abuse. They look good and are fucking tough. Way more rugged then my AC. They just don't look to fancy, but a good polish takes them to the next level.

06BCBANSHEE Posted March 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2013 Damn that looks sick black Nastyracing. Those are some sick looking quads man....damn!! Ya I kinda need something strong trail riding, the duncan one looks sick, good for a sand quad, but prob not for trails like trickedcarbine said. I do like the PRM, but almost think it is too bulky looking. Im gonna go with the IMS roll. Seems like a good compromise between the two. Appreciate your input guys!!

Bad one ton Posted March 23, 2013 Report Share Posted March 23, 2013 When i was looking for a new bumper, i wanted something no one else had. I talked with ban99 and in a couple of days he sent me a picture of this! Its low profile and stout as hell. My point is, get a hold of someone like jds, or wheelmans and see if they could come up with exactly what you want. TON!

WINDYCITYJOHN400 Posted March 23, 2013 Report Share Posted March 23, 2013 Best looking front bumper for a Banshee is hands down the Duncan. (I does give when you hit stuff hard, but that keeps the frame from bending) As for strength up front the PRM is my second favorite. It's aluminum, but you can get black so you can rattle can the touch-ups. For the rear the PRM is all I will run. The flag mount tab is super strong and the design of the grab bar is perfect.
