Nash Jesso Posted September 7, 2014 Report Share Posted September 7, 2014 So if anyone seen my previous posts you would know i traded my 95 big bear 350 2x4 for a 02 shee.when i got the shee it was rough on the edges but not horrible. After a new clutch cable,oil change,a carb cleaning and rebuilding with new airscrews,tires that hold air,and a bit of tweaking i ended up with a great working shee. So i finally cut it loose for the first time today,it was my first time driving a atv with a clutch and first time on a 2 stroke. I was amazed at how natural it felt to drive it was the most fun I've ever had on a quad. The trails here are really wide and smooth with lots of turns,hills and straights so i could really see what it was capable of. Using the clutch came naturally and my style of riding is usually pretty aggressive and fast paced.hitting the powerband was the best feeling ever and opening it up on a straight was awesome,but my favorite thing about it was how fun it was throwing this thing into a turn sideways. I feel inlove with my shee today and i can just imagine how great it will be with pipes and upgraded suspension. So there's my first impression of the banshee,i wouldnt trade it for anything. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troyzstang Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 Night & day difference. Glad your happy with the new bike. Just be careful. Take some time to learn how to work on it. Great satisfaction comes from building these bikes. Troy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nash Jesso Posted September 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 Yes i already know that aslong as you take care of the shee the shee will take care of you.i have alot of friends that have owned a few banshees and know their way around one. One of my father's friends was also a mechanic at the yamaha dealer here for 20 years so when in doubt i can give him a call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluebanshee98 Posted September 8, 2014 Report Share Posted September 8, 2014 Good for you bud! Just know this is not a cheap sport. The good's cost $. Options are as big as your wallet or credit card can handle. Take your time on the bike before going too crazy and be careful cuz it will bite you and put you on your ass. Most importantly enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

salmon_slayer06 Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 First mod I would do is upgrade the suspension. Second I would port the stock cylinders. Many claim that a piped, stock stroke, ported banshee with correct jetting will do some damage at the drags. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nash Jesso Posted September 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 Dont plan on running it in drags,just for racing around in the trails and a bit of sand. Probably not going as far as porting,mostly blot ons for mods. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
