Alright so i found a 2003 banshee forsale close o me and it looks to be in pretty good shape and he only wants 1300 bucks for it. One catch however. He says that the bike will run for about 10 seconds then die. Think this is maybe an electrical problem? or probably just an easy jetting issue?

Just wondering if i should take up on this deal and just figure out what is wrong with it?

Forgot to mention, it already has a TORS elimination so that is ruled out

Sounds like a good deal, but couldn't tell you what that might be.

Possibly there may be a partial clog in one of the fuel lines somewhere or maybe in the carb that's not letting enough fuel to keep the engine running.. but then it would be racing.

Im sure if I can see it in person I could determine the problem easier, but online I couldn't tell you.

You should go take a look at it and see whats up. Report back with more details.
