Fuck that dude and his bike.
You'll prolly be sorry in the future if you buy his bike.
Banshees have come pretty far down in price lately.
I bought my 1998 in 2005 for just over 4k. It was in good shape, ran great,
looked good and all and since then I have done alot of mods to it. I see them
all the time for 500 to 1k less than I originally paid with more mods than I
curently have.
Hang in there and buy right !
You'll be alot happier.
BTW, I have seen a couple nice ones in the BHQ for sale forums that are not that
far off in price than what you seem to be willing to pay. Most of these guys really
take great care of their bikes. Check it out......... :thumbsup:
