thanks for the replies, I'm working my way through the IMs

They may be waterproof but no, they don't float. Looks like they are around $250 on Flea-bay.

Looking for rear hub and sprocket carrier. I have the axle, axle carrier, swingarm sprocket, rotor and rear brakes but still need the carriers for the sprocket and rotor. I don't want to buy off E-bay!

I'd buy it if the coolant overflow wasn't on the chain. Looks clean, I hope you find a buyer.

How gay are they?

How much for just the thumb in the pic? Nice bike! Good luck with the sale.

PM sent on clutch cover...

I've heard Soft Scrub with Bleach can work wonders. (not Soft Scrub mixed with bleach but the Soft Scrub that says 'with bleach' on the label)

I would leave it that way but the bike is too wide for my ramp so I have to load it the hard way.

I took it all, muah ha ha ha ha haaaaaa I haven't installed the clamps or hangers yet but the throttle cover looks WAY better than the old stocker. Thanks!

Thanks to everone that replied. Upon further inspection I discovered that the rear vent tube from the transmission does not connect to anything else and drops down right behing the trans. Motor tilts back, fluid flows out vent tube. Sometime later this week I'll be adjusting/replacing the tube. Let ya know how it goes.

I never said that. Everyone makes their Banshee their own, some like stickers, others hate them. Do what you want, it's your bike. I like to find out about different peoples Banshees and learn as much as I can.

This douche is selling a set of Paul Turner Highs on E-bay. He listed them as 'Nice', they are a rusty mess. When I asked him about it his exact reply was, "Its a crazy world we live in" WTF does that mean? Anyone who wants to buy from this guy is crazy.

Don't get your panties in a twist, I'm not trying to steal your secrets and sell them to China. I just wanted to know more about your build. Sheesh!

Whatchew talkin bout Willis?

Looks like the same model year, different YouTube account but that doesn't mean anything. Anyone check out the other videos from the seller. I particularly enjoyed the comments about the cat and the pool in the 3rd video:

What set up would that be?

If you have more money than sense you can buy it and say you have a new Banshee.

So.... I had to email the guy... and here's what I got in return: 'Hello, Good day, yes I do have pics, however they are not top notch pics with details. I will be taking more pics these days, and maybe even posting up a new youtube video. I can give you some quick details on the quad now though. Its brand new, the tank is empty, its never been started. Its been in my living room in ac all day since I brought it home about a month ago. The title I have is a local title, where it states that this banshee is a 2011 model. However this is false. All these so called 2011 models are just leftovers from 2010. Japan has not manufactured any more banshees since last year. The quad is in Aruba, and any type of arrangement can be made for shipping to the US. My initial plan was to buy it and store it for many years and sell it down the road as a collectors, never been started. I own a 2006 banshee, a 2009 KTM 505sx, a 1987 suzuki LT-500 quadzilla, and a 1986 yamaha tri-z (excellent condition). I am a fanatic as you can tell. However, I've decided to keep what I have, but sell this new banshee. The way I see it, it won't hurt now, since I haven't ridden it and haven't gotten a feel for it to want to keep it. The reason for the price is 2 things.. Here we pay 40%import duties for everything we purchase..from food to clothing, any basic need, everything is imported since it is such a small island. Unfortunately import taxes are very high. 40% import duties for new or used vehicles, motorcyle or car. Apart from that, this is a true classic and a very very rare quad, last year of production, american flag colors...this quad will be worth much more in a few years if your strong enough to store it, apparently I'm not. If you have any questions feel free to contact. Hope this has helped shed some light on this quad deal. John H' Hope that answers your questions

I wouldn't want to do 100 MPH on a Banshee anywhere but the salt flats wearing full leathers etc, and even then I'd probably lift early. The guys who do high speeds in their drag Banshees have extended frames and wheelie bars. Looks like you need two Banshees, one to go fast and another to be quick.
