Sold my banshee about I think 4 months ago. I miss it alot:( Nothing like smoking the 4pokes with my 2 stroke:p Seems everyone hates them that owns a 450.

I am thinking of getting another one. Trying to sell my 400 so I can get one. I want somethign already has cyclinders, pistons, or pipes at minimum. maybe some suspension work.

or

I can buy a 4 stroke quad. I really like the LTR 450s.

I want something to take out to the fields drag race buddies, take to the dunes, something to ride down the roads on nice summer days (legal here), pratice some MX.

What you think? I already have alot of banshee knowledge. Easy to work on, can buy them cheap or I could buy a 4 stroke and be happy but then I am like everyone else again

Decisions suck.:ermm:

get a 2 stroke. banshees are fun ( i have one )

and once you get used to that powerband..... woo hoo

with the kind of riding you do, stick with a pinger.

if you do low-speed trail riding and such, 4strokes are better.

drag racing, dunes, and cruising? do you seriously think anything 4poke can rip down the line like a banshee?
:D

keep 'em alive, they don't breed anymore

i would go with a 450r. there is nothing like winding it out in 5th on a 450 of any kind.

sorry Gray33 No trade for a blaster.



I already have a race quad. Its a king quad I race in XC and GPs. this would just be a lets take it out and drag race or play at the dunes quad.

Get a 4 stroke. Whichever one you want. I won't make fun. :eek2:

Ever thought about a 250r??? They are real nice quad, the 310s and up make good power (for your banshee needs) and the handling is unmatch, plus you can find them for fairly cheap now too...if not....


I would say go with another banshee, a PV set up if you can find one...a 400CC PV banshee with suspension mods :D I dont think you would be disapointed....or can always go with a 330R...alot of choices out there

I have thought about a 250. Accually have somone with a very very nice one that wants to trade me but its so hard to make the desicion lol.

I kinda want a banshee since I have alrady owned one and know quit a bit. I also have some spare parts still lying around.

Then again I should just sale my 400 and forget about haveing 2 quads.


sigh:(

I am prabably the person who makes there mind up 300 times before making a decision lol.

I have been thinking hard. I just want to sell the darn 400 now. Get the cash and pay off my truck so house payments are easier. Then down the road I may but a car.

i think you want a banshee, but the way things are, itd be smarter to get a ltr if you ever want to ride some mx.

banshees:
-there cheap.
-fun.
-POWERBAND!!!
-if something breaks, big deal its cheap, and you know about them.
-nothing like shifting through the gears on a smoker.
-fast in a straight line.

LTR:
-badass.
-efi.
-cherry bomb wakes her up.
-no 2 stroke power.
-if you have motor problems, good luck.

Glad you like them.

I hate my age right now. I want new toys to play with but yet I am getting to the age where I really need to buy a house.:confused:

The devil on my shoulder says Banshee while the Angle says save for a house.:scary:
