that could have been an exiting ride down the hill

Bummer man looded like a nice ride. Oh well now you have no choice but to rebuild and make it even sweeter.

Well now the grand total is up to 3,000 dollars... So what is that now about $150 dollars per roll. Its almost finished it should be done this Wednesday. But now it looks like I have to get a new front left rim, It is bent pretty bad. Rite now my friend is fixing the banshee up. He had to send it to a frame guy and get the rear of the frame straightened, soon after we found out that the front of the frame was bent as well and the things that hold the steering stem were bent all the way to the gas tank. Luckily he was able to fix all that. All the parts have been installed. He is now just going over the electrical to get the headlights to work and to re-wire it so that it doesn't need a key. I am going to have to get some inexpensive front shocks, the stock ones are to soft with the +2 a-arms. As soon as it gets finished and I get it back I will post some Pics of it!

That green paint is bad ***. A guy i kno wrolled his yfz down a 40 rocky cliff and it didnt **** it up that bad.

Thanks, Yeah idk I guess the way my banshee rolled was pretty much as bad as you can roll a banshee.. I am just glad the engine is fine.

YES! My Banshee finally came back today; Here are the pictures I took today, they are kind of low quality and the frame color is diffewrent in these pictures than it really looks, because I took them in the dark, tomorrow in the daylight I will take some better pictures. Yes I do know one of the shock covers is upside down. The Banshee is about 90% complete. So tell me what you think of it so far!

I am getting the last couple of parts this week. I am ordered some "Works Shocks, AT Steeler Front Shocks". Those should come by the end of the week. Rite now I have stock Banshee front shocks and they are to soft with the 2+1 A-arms.. The A-Arms are great, nothing like having a 1989 Banshee with A-Arms instead of J-Arms. Tomorrow I am getting a new front left rim, the one on there rite now is bent. Also I really done like how the spindles are red... It looked good when my plastics were red but now I don't really think it goes to well, so as soon as I get the chance I am gunna change them to Black. Other than those couple of things everything is great! Tell me what you think about my banshee!

Posted by: 250r4life

i cant beleive with all the money you have into that thing that you still have stock pipes....

Posted by: xlastshotx

hahaha yeah, I wish I had the spare money to get some new pipes and silencers, but sadly I could only get things to replace parts that were broken... and the exhaust and silencers were not broken haha. I am going to start saving now for a pipe and silencer combo that will be the next thing to do, but that will be a little ways off.

Heres a few more pictures of my Banshee out on the trails, I had to give it a test run today.

Nice banshee

Posted by: AR15 guy

How much was the total to fix it? I probably would have bought another one and swapped some parts around lol.

Posted by: TRX23rider

lookin really good

Posted by: xlastshotx

Thanks, Yeah I could have bought another used banshee with all the money i spent... Its somewere around 3 grand. But my Banshee is way better than a stock one would be.

Posted by: LOUDONE

Nice so far, but get rid of those stock pipes! Buy yourself some DMC Aliens... You will not be disappointed.

Posted by: 250r4life

thats the 1st time ive ever seen somebody reccomend the DMCs... i dont know if i've ever seen them on a bike either... they dont look too much different from the t-5s.... they work pretty good for you huh? i knew they were pretty good for blasters, but to be honest i didnnt even know they made them for banshees... how are they in price comparison?

Posted by: hondaboy400ex55

my buddy has the dmc pipes and the 2 into 1 silncer and man his banshee is tricked that thing scared me when i road it

but yea he loves them so i know they really good pipes
