Hi guys.
I have just recently purchased a 2012 Yamaha Banshee with 15hrs on the clock. It was a very clean example and was taken care of by the owner. As you may all be aware, the Banshee was produced until 2012 here in Australia. That is a very good thing for us here, but in terms of modifying, there's not much choice here. Parts are hard to come by and very expensive. Also with the currency at the moment it makes buying parts from overseas very expensive as well. For example, I asked a Yamaha dealer here for a genuine plastic and sticker kit and was quoted $2800AUD for it from here.
I am new to bikes and ATV's but always loved the sound of a two stroke. a friend of mine suggested the Banshee, at first it looked real ugly, but after watching a few videos it grew on me. I will be asking you guys for advice and also what mods I should do.
I have pulled the plastics apart and gave it a good clean. I ordered V Force 4 reeds and FMF Fatty and Powercore 2 silencers to begin with and would like to do some more mods in the near future.
