Hi. I will post some pics of my bike tomorrow cause it's 4am at the moment.
It's time for my second major upgrade to my Banshee. My ideas are as follow:
TORS replacement kit cause I meant to last time and it's not a difficult upgrade. Why not.
Aftermarket reeds - was looking at one of the vForce reeds - money is no object so what do you recommend?
Wide rear axle - have wanted this from day one.
GPS/speedo (perhaps) - I'm sorta split on this one, cause I like exploring without a clue, but it'd be so helpful. Ideas? Worth it?
New suspension (see below).
I mostly ride on trails (sand, gravel, tree roots, some rocks), gravel roads, and boggy soft beaches. The bike feels a bit unstable and tall at the front, and the stock suspension isn't really adequate for going fast over those trails. What do you recommend? I'm looking for a starting point here cause I have literally no clue. Then again, that's how I started with upgrade #1 before I asked here
My budget for the suspension is about $1000, but if that's really not enough for a quality set up I can save and buy something more expensive. I want to get this right the first time around. Keep in mind I'm a recreational rider so I don't need perfection here, I just want a good ol' noticeable difference.
From some preliminary Googling, it looks like I'll need a-frames and some other stuff. Please advise. I promise I will become more educated before I go ahead with the upgrade, this is just how I work. Trust me (:

If it helps, I have a 2013 Banshee with the following upgrades installed by myself: FMF fatty pipes, Powercore 2 silencers, 320 mains, 27.5 pilots, Toomey 2 into 1 air filter, +4 adjustable timing plate, Razr Ballance rears, Razr XC fronts, etc.
Thanks for the help (:
