Sold the banshee so I have some parts for sale. Stock lower arms, one has a dent - $45 shipped Stock tie rods - $25 shipped Stock pipes and silencers - $45 shipped Stock nerfs and foot pegs - $45 shipped I also have some stock maier white front fenders, one has a crack where it attaches to the support, some Maier red tank and radiator plastic with graphics(somewhat faded and mounting hole are worn) Make me an offer for all of it and get it for a deal. Sorry no pics of the arms and tie rods.

I have a 1989 Winner 17' ski boat with 3.0 Merc i/o. Very good shape and reliable. I'm asking $2,800 for the boat and trailer but I would really like to find a 250r or another Shee. Located about 30 minutes north of Charlotte, NC.

I agree, I have roughly the same mods as you (FMF Gnarly, k&n, no lid) and I'm running stock pilots with 300 mains. No bog here at 700 ft. Check your needle setting, should be on the 3rd clip (middle one).

How bout 'em! And they don't even have Steve Smith on the field yet. Our running game looks nasty again this year!

Thanks! I've got some 450 shocks coming that I won on Ebay but I can't get in touch with the guy for a tracking number. I sent a dispute with Paypal. It's been almost 2 weeks and they still haven't shown up from CA

I couldn't have said it better than 98. Mine was doing the same thing but caused my throttle to stick and got into a nasty crash. JB weld that SOB so you don't get hurt!

Here's mine...it's not there yet but I'm getting closer

Still have the stock pegs and nerfs for $45 shipped

Sounds pretty typical of a Banshee. They aren't known for low end. You can do some things to them to help keep it in the powerband at lower RPMs. 2:1 carb, FMF Gnarly/PT Mid/Dynoport 2:1 pipes, drop a tooth on the front sprocket, etc. One thing you might check is the setting on the needle. If it isn't set just right, it will cause a bogging before the powerband hits. What pilot are you running also?

Porting won't come until after I get my suspension and handling up to par. Can't go any faster than I can keep her straight! :biggrin:

I'm looking to spend about $400 and don't know which way to go. 98 Banshee, Burgard 2+1 arms, stock shocks, FMF Gnarly pipes, stock airbox with no lid & K&N. Tread is getting somewhat low on my Kenda rears bu thtey could likely last a couple more months. Rear fender is cracked but stitched with zip ties and is holding. I am considering the following: Works shocks w/rezzies - $350 ish Steering stabilzer - $125 New rear Maxxis Razrs - $175 Used rear fender - $100 Noss head - $200 Adjustable timing plate - $50

Looking for some aftermarket shocks setup for 2+1 arms and a 200# rider.

Sorry to hear about your back! That's one nice R you have. I wish I had the spare cash! Good luck with the sale, but more importantly with your health.
