yup, thats a pretty sweet quad. I kinda wish I would of got a banshee but then again I kinda like having a 4 stroke quad with good handling and suspension. Just wish I had the 2 stroke snap sometimes.

Nice cr250 we have a bored out 96 cr125 with all the after market goodies. We are redoing it this winter we have just got our new ufo black plastic and we are getting new number plates, skin industries graphics, we are going to pain the gas tank, powder coat the frame and get a polishing kit for the side cases.

Nice shee man sure do love those fmf pipes they put out the sound.I especially love the sound of banshees anyway.When I bought my 300ex I had 4000 dollars of my own money and I found a shee I wanted and I test rode it, it was awesome.It had fmf pipes,reeds, razr's on the rear and it was a 2001 in exellent condition.Man I sure wish I had give the extra 350 bucks.

p.s. Nice looking cr!!:D

hey kyle (quadracer), just out of curiosity, since your a yammie tech person, do you HAVE to do much maintenance and work on it. has it broken down much? just wondering, cuz the few shee owners i have known have had normal shee problems like top ends, rings etc.

I would go with fmf if you want more low pro circuit if you want more top.

BlastrEatr300ex, I honestly don't have a lot of problems. I run 93 octane fuel mixed at 32:1 with Klotz KL103. Most banshee owners problems are rooted in their fuel quality, mixing ratios, etc.. The only thing I never liked about the shee was its chain adjustment, but its not that bad. It is a high revving twin 2 smoke so yes, I do replace the topend from time to time, but the intervals are a good deal apart. Proper jetting and pre-mix will make the shee just as reliable as a 400ex, or pick your poison. The only other problem with the shee is cooling when you start modifiying the motor, but thats solved with products such as the cool head, larger capacity radiator, stainless steel water impeller, and a few other tricks i've learned over the years. They can be extremely reliable, or piles of junk, depends on the owner. :)

Nice banshee! I was thinking about getting one before I got my 250r.

I try to, its hard sometimes! The last thing I want to do when I get home from a 8 hour riding trip is clean the machine and lube and adjust things. But, thats what keeps it in good condition and running well. All my stuff is kept in the garage unless i'm riding. These things are big investments so I try not to let all my hard earned money go down the drain!! lol. Y'all take care.

nice bike. I just got a new 2002 cr250 today. Man it takes getting use to the bike after riding quads for the last few years. It sure does feel good to have a 2 storke again.

Yea, I find it hard to ride both at times. Its tough to get good on one when you have to ride completely different on either one. Thats one reason my CR is for sale, lol. But its fun though, I love riding both of them.
