Yeah, I know they are harder to find, I guess it just depends what your wanting, me I like the banshee's because I like the speed, and I'm not impressed with the 250r's. I know you can build one to run like a bastard, but parts are probably going to get harder to find or cost a shit load to get parts. They still sale around here for around $2000-$2500 when one pops up. Like I said don't take it to heart, I'm nobody here. Just my opinion I don't think they are what they used to be back in the day.
