Looking at buying some 'shees


Recommended Posts

I am going to go look at some Banshees at Fort Collins Motorsports Saturday. They are selling 3 of them in a wholesale lot for 6g. What they have told of these machines is they have a 2000 thats in good shape other than the frame is broke at the footpeg mount, a 1994 that is in decent shape but the front brakes don't work, and a 1995 Vito's 383 that doesn't run. I am considering buying them and fixing the 2 machines that run and selling them, and then start from scratch building my dune bike from the non-running quad. What ya'll think, does that sound like a pretty fair deal? I am hoping to get $3500 for the 2000 after its fixed and $2500 for the '94 after its fixed--that would leave me with a seized '95, but it would be FREE.

That sounds like a good deal. If I where you thats exactly what Id do. keep yourself a good frame and start building. Id definately look at em If I where close...

breakin a frame at the peg mount aint shit. my buddy is heavy and loves to air his out and breaks the left peg about annually. the only thing is that when you weld it back on put some steel plating on the underside and weld it up nice for some extra support.

Sounds like a good deal. I've actually been to Fort Collins Motorsports several times...I go up to Red Feather Lakes every year, will be making a trip to Walden sometime too. B)

Let me know when you go to Walden, I'll bring some buddies and meet up with ya. Its starting to get to where its really crowded almost every weekend, but its still pretty fun.

Will do. I'm sure it'll be a while, *maybe* next Memorial Weekend when we go to RedFeather we may bring them along & hit the dunes for a day or so since it's only like an hour or so from there. We'll see....I'm sure I'll post something on the forums too. B) So are you getting those banshee's or what?
