Just picked up another project ( That's an understatement)

Anyway it's a 2005 banshee. I paid $240.00 and it's a long term project. I'll do a rebuild thread on this one. Wish me luck

I do NOT like working on Banshees. I rebuilt one that was in a fire and hated every minute of it.

You and me both! I absolutely hate working on Banshees. Matter of fact, not having to work on my Hondas has spoiled me:D

Back to stock.
The bike came about 80% complete. I know it needs a crank assembly, pistons, radiator, wire harness, seat and cables. I'm sure the list will grow but if I have another $1,000 into it I should do ok.

Should be a fun build.
I really enjoy the "before and after" results.

Why do you guys say you hate working on banshee's? Haha. They're one of the easiest quads to work on, they're so damn simple.

I had a 400ex.. It was a nightmare just to get to the carb. The banshee is SOO much easier to work on... there really isn't much too them. Didn't take me long at all to take it down to a rolling frame.. and the wiring harness is like a string.
