dlnoss Posted February 5, 2005 Report Share Posted February 5, 2005 I'm ashamed to say, but it had been over a year since I had even started my Banshee. Between work and other toys I just hadn't found the time. Well, I decided to get her out and see if she would even start without rebuilding the carbs. I shook up the gas, smelled it to see if it stunk. Thank God race gas doesn't sour like pump gas. Started on the third kick,,cool. I warmed her up good and went for a spin. Damn, it had faded in my mind how good they feel when the power comes on. My Banshee isn't even fast compared to most of the ones on BHQ, not very many mods. My wife was making fun of how big my smile was. Sorry for the boring post but no one except a Banshee rider can appreciate 'em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red ore Posted February 5, 2005 Report Share Posted February 5, 2005 Im the same way. Once in a great while I get to ride. With racing my car and all the other stuff I never get time to ride. So when I get to go out and tear it up, its a big suprize everytime. At times I tell my wife "I should sell the banshee, I never get to ride it"....she ALWAYS replies with, "go ride it for 5 minutes and tell me that agin" I still have mine, and porbably wont ever sell it.

I don't ride much, and when I want something new, like a computer, or a TV I start saying Im going to sell it. My Mom tells me to go out and ride it down the street. Every time I come back in theres no way in hell I want to sell it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmoore Posted February 6, 2005 Report Share Posted February 6, 2005 I get crabby after about a few days of not being able to ride. This time of year in MN it's hard to get a decent day to ride. BANSHEES RULE LIKE NO OTHER! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlnoss Posted February 6, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2005 Dave sounds like you need a tax deductible "R&D" trip somewhere We've been thinking about that, even if it's just a quick trip to our 'little' dunes at Little Sahara. During the week would be nice when there aren't thousands of other people there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
