guns4children Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 I've been gone for a few years so I'm kinda out of the loop and searching couldn't come up with anything. I know Tyler had a Honda 450 frame with a dirt bike type subframe and seat. I was just wondering if anyone has made something similar for the banshee frame.

trickedcarbine Posted April 7, 2016 Report Share Posted April 7, 2016 Any other info pics or anything?Just my inspiration... I should just be doing a hybrid, but last season I committed to setting a stock frame on Kill at a unicorn level. I pulled the trigger on a bunch of new parts so there's no going back. As far as the seat, it's getting a new sub frame and the pipes will be hand made any way, so I decided to try a different seat. It'll be a banshee pan with the middle narrowed, and about an inch of foam added on each rear corner to make ears like what the YFZ-R 450 has. It's just a cut up frame and box of chromoly right now. Just a few more odds and ends to get here and then it's off to Southside Motorsports. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sleeper06 Posted April 7, 2016 Report Share Posted April 7, 2016 I wish u were closer I would love to do this for you . It looks fun as hell. You know I'm doing this to an asphault bike now looks sick . Time to take a frame out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guns4children Posted April 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2016 If guy make bolt on sub frames wouldn't it be easy to just make one to fit a dirt bike seat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleeper06 Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Yeh, biggest problem I see is getting it to mesh rite and not look stupid up front by the tank but most asphault set ups run seat pans anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure I'll just cut one up see how it feels, then lay foam on it and send it out to get covered. I think it'll end up way smaller then a Zilla seat, but a touch bigger then the 450 seat. I was thinking of just doing it with a regular 450 seat, but I rode an R and a few Suzuki LTR's with the taper out back and like the way it feels.
