So guys how or I guess I should ask what all would I need to take care of all the rust on this Banshee?

Rick, Where in AL do you live? I am in Tuscaloosa and Birmingham and I am picking up a Banshee in 2 weeks after years of 4wd riding.

Talked to the owner he said he hasn't ever had to touch it for repairs and the engine is all original. He said the clutch is just barley starting to slip so he got the clutch kit. He said he would install it for me if I buy it. He said he hasn't driven it much at all the two years he has had it, the original owner had it for driving around the neighborwood and he tradeed it to the current owner for a jet ski. He also said it got up to 91mph in some kinda test, but he said on theroad it would be in the 80s top speed. He said all the mods minus the pipe were done by the current owner about 1.5 yrs. ago, but he said he has driven it very little since then. So guys how often do these engines have to be rebuilt, etc? I don't know the mileage of this one and hope it won't need to be messed with for atleast a little while. How much does a rebuild usually run? It does have a new top end on it that has low mileage. Just wanting to know what kinda upkeep and maintanance these Banshees need to have? I know its alot more than my utility atvs I am used to, but they can't go 80mph either, lol.

Where is a cheap place that carries compression testers? Exactly where do I screw it in and the procedure? I'm sorry just new to all this.

Just got the guys e-mail and here are pics. Please give me honest opinion on wheather to get it or not. I'll have to host the pics, give me a second.

I found a guy thats having a baby and is needing to sell his Banshee. I have never riden a Banshee or hardley any sport quad for that matter, but I've always wanted one if I could get a good deal. Anyways he is getting pics and he says its in good conditon with the usualy scrathes on the plastic and there ia a dent or two in the pipe and some minor rust on the pipe. 2002 Banshee (white/black) - Maxxis Razr rear tires - Maxxis Pros front - FMF pipes w/ silencers - Noss Machine head w/ 21cc domes (whats this mean?) - timing advance key - Jet kit - Pro Design intake kit - Pro Design inline cooler - Durablue rear axle - Barret complete clutch kit (in box) He said stock it dynoed 31 rwhp and it now puts out 43rwhp. He said he has to get $2500 for it. Is this a good deal? What all do I need to look at when I go look at this atv? I know its a high performance machine and I have no clue whee all to look for. Also what do you think this atvs top speed is? Thanks, Zach
