Just got the deal done on a banshee. I should pick it up in a couple days. I cant wait to run this thing through the gears. Its an 03 with pro circuit pipes. Reeds, new clutch,full skids,twist throttle and tether kill switch. Im not sure about the black pipes (appearance wise) but with the black powdercoat on the nerfs its growing on me. Im thinking a black iron cross bumper might finish it off. Didnt mean to ramble but Im pumped :)

nice man what are your plans for it? I highly recommend some +2+1 a-arms and shocks. It will make it handle 10x better

Hey thanks. Just got it home tonight. Right now its gonna be ridden mainly on our 60 acres. First thing I'll probably do is get some razr or holeshots on it. Those rear ballons just spun when I test rode it. What a rush though. Its only gonna be 30 something tommorrow but Im ready to see what this thing will do.

it will do what you want it to do. just be kinda gentle on it and let it idle for a couple minutes to warm up. Dont just start and take off with it so cold. could cause some problems. (i.e. experience with my old 02 Banshee)

Whatever tires you put on it, its still gonna spin, its the nature of the beast. haha.

Other than some stress marks on the rear fenders, nice banshee.

He hit the nail right on the head. They love to spin. Unless you have paddles on sand, get used to it.

I have cut knarls and it still spins.

It looks very clean. Looks like they stripped it down and pained the frame, suepsnion and subframe.

Banshee's are very reliable and good bikes when taken care of. Have fun and enjoy it!!!:D

a -2" swingarm will take away a good amount of the tire spin. I love mine

I fihgured its gonna spin no matter what. I never felt a quad feel like the back was gonna come around like that. Unless their was snow on the ground. I took it down the road and it hooked then :) This is gonna be fun
