T-daddy.

I know, and I'm ready for it. The Brute is pretty damn smooth but the CVT dulls down the V-Twin's power. Still, the thing takes off unbelievably quick for a 700-pound quad. But the weight is why I want to buy a sport quad, riding that thing is just a hassle.

I actually just read a lot about the J-arm/A-arm difference and debate. A lot of people are very biased towards one or the other. I'm never going to do any racing so J-arms should be fine. But there's always the J-arm to A-arm conversion if I want to switch it up later on. For now I just want a fast sport quad to have some fun with. My Brute Force just doesn't cut it any more. The Banshee seems like the perfect quad since it's got a ton of power (I'm used to the Brute Force's V-Twin...). Thanks again, everyone.

Messaged you.

Will do all that was mentioned, thanks for the tips. What should the compression be? Thanks again.

T-daddy, your inbox is full. I was going to respond to your PM but can't because of this. Empty it out and I'll re-send the message I was going to send. Thanks.

Hey everyone. I'm looking to buy a Banshee. Found one I'm very interested (actually being sold by a member on this site) and might go look at it soon. But before I buy it, I'm wondering...even if the quad looks to be in good shape, is there anything major to look out for? Other than common things to look at (engine, suspension, transmission, rust, etc.) is there anything important to look at? Did the Banshee have any major issues or problems that I should be aware of? It's a 1988 model if that helps. Thanks for any input/advice, I appreciate it.
