I picked up my '05 on Monday the 16th (last Monday). I payed around $4k. Thankfully with the economy not being that great I was able to talk him down, since he needed the money. I love it. It's definately a badass toy. I get a lot of compliments on it also...everyone respects a 'Shee. :biggrin: I don't know what shape the one you're looking at is in, but hell if it's running $1000.00 is a steal. You can't buy much with $1,000 these days. Definately take it for a spin and see how she runs, and how you like it.

What kind of supplements has everyone run?

'06 LBZ here. Gotta love that motor...what an abundance of power. Very nice truck btw, congrats. As far as programming goes...I'd reccomend EFI Live. It's insane. Good idea to not power up to much though, don't wanna hurt the Allison like you said. Sounds like you got the right idea, sir. :cool:

I would like to think of myself as a weight lifter...and I thought I was one until I saw your pics, haha. I lifted during high school, up until graduation, when I factured 2 bones in my hand by getting pissed off and punching a concrete column, lol. I took about a year because I went off to college, working 30 hours a week, etc. I started again about a month ago. No where near your size though.

I'm a new Banshee owner, and I just wanted to know what regular maintenance I should perform on the bike. Any tips? I want to keep it in as good of shape as I can. It's an '05, lightly used. What types of worn parts should I look for? It runs amazing, and only thing I noticed it needs soon will be rear brake pads...and maybe tires further down the road.

Try craigslist. I saw more than a few in my area for 1500-2000.
