[Things to look for when buying a banshee]

I would never buy a quad that is claimed to run without riding it first. If they don't let you ride it, don't buy it.

 

Something to think about. I would never let someone ride one of my bikes if I was selling it. But at the very least I want him too see him ride it. Also thanks Dunatic for the link.

What are the mods?

Just pipes?  You get to test ride before hand?

 

Just pipes and jetted for the pipes. I wouldn't say i would get a test ride. I would never let someone test ride anything I am selling unless I have cash in hand. I would be surprised if he didn't at the very least start it up and rip it around for a minute or two.

Is there a title for it?

 

Not sure. I will ask but where I live you just need the bill of sale to register it. I could always arrange to meet him at the DMV to check the vin and make sure its not stolen.

Thanks Sully. So what are your guys thoughts?

Any where around 120 psi if it has a stock head that hasnt been molsested. If its under that you have a good chance at getting a few bucks knocked off if hes a cool guy

Make sure normal stuff like the front and back breaks work. Got any pics of it? What are all the mods? 

 

Won't let me attach them for some reason.

Hey guys new to the fourm,

 

Looking to get a banshee. Any advice you can give me when getting one? What are things you commonly need replacing when you buy one? As of right now there is one for sale that looks like a good deal. It is an 04. Guy lost his job so he needs to sell it. Looks to be in good shape, has FMF SST pipes, says its low hour, top end was done 20-25 hrs ago, also says I can do a compression test. What would some healthy compression numbers be on a banshee? And he wants about $2000( Canadian ) which seems like a good enough deal. Most normally go for $2500+ in my area. Should I jump on it? Thanks for any help.
