its alot different than other quads...and is tough to keep up at slow speeds with the peaky powerband....i used 2 do mine like this....get goin in 2nd right before the power band nail it let off then gas again and it usually came up....but dont try for ballance point at tha speed unless ur good or in soft stuff...their fun that way...good luck....or u could try the dead stop approach

Get in the meat of the power band then let her rip. Came very close 2 killing my self though.:devil But the speed will pretty much keep it up.

go to store and buy some extra large testies. then you hang on and pray it all goes well .wheelies get out of hand fast on a banshee. they are very hard to do and maintain for any distance. they either pop and drop or want to come all the way up.
but thats just my opinion dont take it seriously

Banshees are not that hard to wheelie... you just have to learn how to do it... i could ride a banshee down the whole field after a day and 1/2 of practice.. but my 400ex is alot easier just to effortlessly pop an ride through the trails... i think learning your balance point on a quad is a GREAT skill, because i can get the front up if i am climbing over a root or log, an it will keep the momentum... if you want to ride a banshee wheelie...
*this one takes lots of MODS*(or makes it easier)
get it in about 4th right before the power hits...
then PULL IT UP AN HANG THE **** on.....
that is how i did it... it reminds me of riding a wheelie on a 4 wheeled crotch rocket...IMO

Riding wheelies on a shee is ALOT different than on a 400ex or anything like that. At least it is for me..
Dont try to balance a wheelie like you would with a four stroke. You'll be laying on your head.
Either start from a stop in second and clutch your way into a wheelie or hit one in a mid range or high gear at a medium speed right as its revving into the powerband. Powering through a wheelie at 60-70, even 80 mph is a feeling you can't get with anything else short of a street bike.
It might take more practice on a stock banshee, but you can have alot of fun with those powerband wheelies.
Be careful when shifting gears though, that can be pretty dangerous. You have to shift at the right time to keep the front end in the same place, and not bring it over on you.
Rick350twin is right, they can get out of hand in a split second so don't try to be a daredevil your first time out.

If you want I have some wheelie footage..

grab the clutch,rev the gas,pop it up nice and tap the back brake,do it wrong and you will bust and *** and bend the frame,banshee's will break ur neck if you dont know what your doing.make sure you wear a helmet
