New Banshee Project

[250r4life]

Well, an opportunity came along and there is only so much for me to do on my other bikes this summer, so i went ahead and picked up an old banshee to clean up and play with... Its an old J-armed Banshee, although I havent looked too closely to determine the year yet. It was sitting for several years, is pretty dang dirty, and the t5s are rusted pretty good... Its got an extended swing arm and CT etched into the cylinder, so Im assuming it has some motor work as well...

Im excited to get it all cleaned up and running...

not too much better than taking an old beat up bike and making it run like a champ and look cherry...

If it's the original motor them then take the number on the motor (Left side case, little flay area) and look on bansheehq. There's a thread I believe you can look at to determine the year.

Good luck on the build. Projects are the best:cool:
