Otis Posted January 27, 2005 Report Share Posted January 27, 2005 I say jump on it. 4 grand isn't a bad price, for a bike that clean, and that modded out. your gonna end up doing most of em(if not all) over time, at a much higher price, anyway. I say do it!...jmo.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
01bansheefox Posted January 27, 2005 Report Share Posted January 27, 2005 put it this way i sold almost a stock 2001 banshee for 3700, only had pipes and tires. That has a couple thousand just in mods it looks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bansheeryder21 Posted January 27, 2005 Report Share Posted January 27, 2005 That's a good deal. But the kind of terrain you said you are going to ride, I wouldn't ride a banshee! In my opinion banshees are made for one thing, and that's SAND! I've taken mine on some trails and some climbs and it sucks. It just doesn't work with that power band! But hey, it's all up to you!!!

LRD's are an amazing wood pipe though. I'd jump on that for 4 grand. Might want to look into front fenders to keep the mud away from you as well.

stu Posted January 27, 2005 Report Share Posted January 27, 2005 I've taken mine on some trails and some climbs and it sucks. It just doesn't work with that power band! But hey, it's all up to you!!! 312984[/snapback] they suck it trails and climbs??? dude where are living.....mars? a banshee has won the Pont de Vaux 12 hr race for about 4 years or something. I ride mine on trails and climb hills all day long and it plain kicks ass if youve got a drag motor and a +6 swinger then maybe they do suck in anything but sand......but at least you know if your on a bashee your gonna be stu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'SheeRider07 Posted January 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2005 Im going to be racing MX a lot too as well as some trails and hill climbs, mostly at MX tracks practicing/racing though. Ill be at MX tracks every Tuesday, Thrusday, Saturday, and Sunday. Then Ill trail ride in between. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ride sand and you ride what ever you ride! Banshee is a Banshee! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
. Posted January 27, 2005 Report Share Posted January 27, 2005 Just my opinion! I ride sand and you ride what ever you ride! Banshee is a Banshee! 313081[/snapback] Well your opinion sucks..... You built your shee for the sand....so of course its not gonna be as good in the trails and on several types of hillclimbs....and it'll probably do better in the sand than mine....not to mention your riding skill in the trails isnt up to par since all you do is ride sand. Banshee's are a good overall platform and can be built to perform rather well in all conditions. Get a shee that is built for the woods and you have a completely different monster On a side note, if you're gonna be doing a lot of MX, a banshee is gonna limit you in what classes you'll be able to run and a lot of work is needed to give them good potential on a mx track. You might want to look into a new 4stroke or a 250R if your gonna stick to the track a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wassup350 Posted January 27, 2005 Report Share Posted January 27, 2005 Dude JUMP ON THAT!!!!! Depending on your district or what ever id say that would be a great MXer. It's got a shitload in suspension which will put it quite a bit above par with your EX. If you do buy it i'd invest in some PTR mids or a dynoport 2-1 pipe and definitely a trinity 2-1 35 mm carb.

But hey, it's all up to you!!! 312984[/snapback] Thats a way good deal. I'm sure you will not be dissappointed with the shee. However I do agree with bansheeryder. I only ride my shee in the sand, thats just me though. If I were going to mainly be riding mx, trac, and mountains I would invest in a yfz450. But once again, I think it comes down to personal preferance. Or if you can afford it, buy both and have the best of both worlds! As soon as my shee is paid off I'm investing in a 450.
