anybody see the new banshee in dirtwheels


Recommended Posts

I instantly started thinking about ways to get some cash together! What do you guys think the odds are that they'll come out with something similar to what Dirt Wheels reported was in prototype in this months issue? I mean, a 500cc, twin cylinder, 4 stroke banshee could be one bad a$$ machine. But for now, I guess we'll have to dream :banghead:

Any cash that you might have been getting together for that, you can just send to me......................

 

Past, that I talked to my buddy at Yamaha R&D Cypress, CA, the other day, and he confirmed that it was b.s. i actually hadn't seen or heard about the cover photo up until the point he brought it up and I had to ask him what the hell he was talking about. The only reason I called him was that I was looking for some plastic scraps. :shoothead:

ok i know this is like beating a dead whore but,, what if.... say yamaha does really come out with this new 4choke banshee? i mean if you look at the banshee as it is now there are a ton of things they have not improved on in years and years, what if yamaha finally deided to improve the things that need to be improved and put a 4 choke 500 motor in it? would you give it a second look? and would you still consider it a true banshee. the mag talks about it being a snow mobile motor why not? the original motor was suposed to be for a street bike? look at the suspension an a stock shee its complete utter shit and its front heavy and the low end sucks and even though im a loyal banshee owner and rider i like the power of the new 4 chokes they just arent comfy to ride. the banshee is a super comfy bike so what if they really do re vamp it as a 4 choke?????? what then

the yfz 350 was in a street bike aka rz350. also, they should make that bike now otherwise now that the idea is all out there, someone might take that idea and use it.

That would be an absolute disgrace to us Banshee owners if Yamaha called a 4-stroke a Banshee. The Banshee was born a 2-stroke and it should rest in piece like one, period!

yea I agree there. but they should still make it,. just call it something else. Because its not at all a banshee. frame motor plastic everything is different.
