Welcome to the BHQ
Nothing wrong with the J-arm banshee, but I would rather have A-arms for availability. Check for bearings being shot, rear swing arm, carrier, steering and front hubs. Not forgetting the bushings in the A-arms, all these are replaceable and no big deal unless there is excessive play/slop. Then you know the thing has been ridden like this for a while and was not taken care of. How easily does it start???? All these things add up, good basics for talking them down, or moving on to the next banshee. The deals are out there, just take your time, when it comes. You may keep your eyes open on here, theres always one for sale here, and it may even be in your area. Good luck!
