I just bought a 2001 banshee. Its all stock but, it looks like a new bike. The guy bought it new never really rode it much. He gave it to his kid. Mom said its got to go after watching a few videos on youtube. 1500 dollars later. I have myself a basically new banshee. :smile: I plan on getting a new set of toomey T5's. The problem being, I'm not made of cash and christmas for two kids is coming up. I would like to find a cheap set for now until after christmas. I know I could just use the stock pipes but, I have heard about how much pipes wake these bikes up and I cant wait. I have about $120 to spend right now. I know someone has to have some old rusted pipes laying around.

I have a set of T5's w/ silencers that are rusted near cylinder about 10" down The visible parts look pretty good when mounted w/ plastic on . The silencers are in real nice shape. Id like to get a little more than 120 for them though. Id do $180 or so plus the ride Probably 200 total depending where you are.

 

 

Let me know if interested

Thanks guys, but Im looking for some a little cheaper. I was hoping to find some for around $125. I just want something cheap to use for a couple of months. They can be ugly rusted or whatever. As long as they work well. I plan to buy new chrome t5's after christmas. Thank you for offering. I guess Im stuck with the stock ones for now.

save your 120 for pipes and buy some k&n filters w/outerwears for now. they'll give some more power to hold you over untill you get the t5s.

Thats a good Idea. I guess Im just exited to see how she runs with pipes. Oh well its not like its slow the way it is. I just know that something simple like pipes filters and jets would do wonders. Your right paying for pipes twice is kind of dumb. Thanks for the advice. My last hobby was building drag S10's and I seemed to always be get ahead of myself with that to. Thought this would be a cheaper hobby. I think I might have been wrong.

Yes I know the paddles are the wrong way. I just put them on so I could roll it around in my shop. I guess I really should change them and take another pic. If I dont Illprobably get comments on every post I make.lol Im new at banshees not common sense. Oh well at least you guys got a kick out of it. I did pick up some pipes on ebay. Theyre bills. I heard good and bad about them. I havent ran them yet but they look great and they were really cheap.
