chris642 Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 i dont know man, thats a hard one. i was thinking about doing the same thing, selling the shee to get a YZ 250. after alot of thouhgt, i decided not to. besides the money i would be losing, i cant take the 250 everywhere like i can on the shee. some of the rivers i cross would be very hard on the bike, and forget about riding in deep snow, well, i would probally try it for fun i am gonna get real good on this little 65 i got, by that time i will probally have the cash for a YZ. i wouldnt really want to buy an older banshee unless i wanted to dump cash into it becasue of all the shit heads that dont take care of thier bikes. its up to you, just dont come crying to us when you get roosted.

bansheefreak Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 well i agree with ya led.. keep the buggie it means more then just a buggie...to you... but hey even if ya get rid of the shee .. you can always buy another one down the rd.... they so cheap now... i think price will go up when they stop production ... so get another one before then... if you rid yours... i think everyone knows even if you get the bike you will still be on hq as normal only thing will be diff is when you go for a ride you will hear........" bbbbraaa braaa".... instead of..... "rrinnngggg aaaaaa ddinnngggg ddiiinnggg" " rrinngg aaa ddiinngg dddiinngg"..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y2kbanshee9187 Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 I say keep the shee but... Your decision man. You can always wait and save up for the bike and just not sell anything. Then just one more toy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stclark816 Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 Donate sperm to raise money, and keep the banshee and get the XR!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frocashmoney24 Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 all i have to say is, do you really want to see somebody else riding your banshee? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenBB Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 I knew ya wouldn't want to part with the buggy, sentimental value, but if it was me I'd feel the same about the Bansh I mean if you're wantin' something to just tool around on, might as well swap the EX for the XR...really if you had both being so similar (at least motor-wise) I think you'd find yourself riding one alot more and the other collecting dust, but if you kept the Banshee you'd always have that adrenaline rush when you wanted it...

Cotton eyed Joe Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 If everything is paid for, why not keep it?? Just tell the old lady shes parking out at the fuckin street so you can have room in the garage for your toys. Hell, I'd have a dozen of them if I could.

Brian060 Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 Hey Led, If it helps any, i had a 2004 crf250r. If i can recall, those bikes go for around 6g new. I bought it used for about 3500. That should say something about how these bikes hold their valur. Then again your lookin at a dual sport . Anyway, when i went to the dealership to ask how much i'de get on a trade in they sadi 2700 . ANd trust me.. that bike was MINT! I say keep the banshee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super88_banshee Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 Just pull 2 wheels off of your ex and its close enough to having the same thing or put the ex motor in a bike frame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledofthezep Posted January 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 Donate sperm to raise money, and keep the banshee and get the XR!! Sperm Bank & Plasma place already got me on call. all i have to say is, do you really want to see somebody else riding your banshee? 'nuff said. 312519[/snapback] LMFAO Hey Led, If it helps any, i had a 2004 crf250r. If i can recall, those bikes go for around 6g new. I bought it used for about 3500. That should say something about how these bikes hold their valur. Then again your lookin at a dual sport . Anyway, when i went to the dealership to ask how much i'de get on a trade in they sadi 2700 . ANd trust me.. that bike was MINT! I say keep the banshee 312526[/snapback] I wouldn't even consider paying anything out of my pocket. I doubt I do shit, I told them they'd have to be generous with accessories for the bike, i.e. Baja Designs dual sport kit & new tires, along with the old ones, new skids, helmet...so I dunno, I don't want the southern end of the deal...at least a fair trade & I know I got more into my banshee than they're wanting for that XR. I doubt I do shit, the more I think about going to the dunes riding my EX the whole time, the more I want to keep the shee...I'm probably going to snoop around for a decent used one that I can rebuild the way I want it. I gotta keep the EX around for the girl though...unless I could talk her into letting me trade it off, if so; it's probably gone. I appologize for acting a fool.

DUNEDEMON Posted January 26, 2005 Report Share Posted January 26, 2005 ^ Glad you came to your senses! On a side note I bumped into Robert Plant and Jimmy Page this morning at Starbucks getting coffee, they both told me that if you got rid of the Banshee they would personally pay you a visit and deliver a one of a kind grade A choice ass woopin!
