sredish Posted May 13, 2004 Report Share Posted May 13, 2004 Hey, I live in Lubbock Texas. I had been lookin for a used banshee to buy, but havent had much luck. Does anyone know of a used banshee for sale within a reasonable distance of me?? Thanks Not really close, but in Gainesville, there's a Yamaha dealer with a pretty nice newer blue banshee. Looks like it's in pretty good shape. Didn't ask how much cause I'm not in the market. The dealer ship is: Gainesville Powersports Gainesville, TX Call them and find out.

inferno218 Posted May 15, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2004 Thanks for the help. I ended up finding a guy who lives in Lubbock selling a 97 banshee stock. He is askin 3000$ for it and said its about a 8.5 of 10 as far as cosmetics and runs perfect. What is your oppinion on this deal? I told him I would stop by and look at it Monday. Any help or suggestions would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gargamel Posted May 15, 2004 Report Share Posted May 15, 2004 I thought there was a liability issue and Yamaha wasn't allowed to sell Banshee's to Texans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrokeStonedBiker Posted May 15, 2004 Report Share Posted May 15, 2004 $300 is a lot. make sure its in mint condition. and startes first or second kick. when you go there bring a tool to test the compression. ckeck the oil if its black you can prolly tell he didnt even take the time to lean it before hes selling it, never mind how he took care if it while he was riding it. check the brake pads. check the clutch free play and see if the clutch is workin properly. check for cracks buy looking for chipped paint. check the air filter, bring a flash light. and stick your finger around the inside of the carbs and see if thers dirt there, there shouldnt be. does it have any mods done to it?
