What was your bad experience with the yfz450 swap ? i just picked up the arms,shocks and a set of noss tierods for my banshee so i am curious because i have only read the good. Thanks btw i noticed your sig do have a gen1 or gen2 lightning ? Quote
zach45 Posted March 8, 2009 Report Posted March 8, 2009 he got a blown up SVT lol... the shocks are fine for me,... but the a arms made me sit like 4" off the ground lol.... Quote
speed-racer Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Im pretty sure it would be way too wide. Someone can chime in if I'm wrong, but I think the 450r arms are wider than the 450, which are already pretty wide on a banshee because of the frame width. Quote

I wasted my money on a freakin 450 set up. grrrrr. ive allready got the 450 arms on my shee and they work great. but im not using 450 shock because of their length. and when i can afford arms for my shee i will get them but right now i dont have $1200+ for a long travel set... i was just curious if it would be the same amount of work to get and what width you would achive.

2003LimitedBanshee Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 hey all the new yfz450r is out and i was wondering if the arms will swap over just like the previous models to our shee's. does anyone know if this will work or not? thanks I'm going to go with probably not. The A-arms from everything I have read, will NOT switch over to the non "R" 450's, which would lead me to believe they will not switch over to the frount of the Banshee. NOw, that isn't to say that it might not be able to be worked out, but it would almost certainly involve much more modification. Not too mention, as I think was said in here, it would probably be un-godly wide. The new 450R track width is almost 50" and that is on a frame width that is near 250R for the front suspension mounting area. Couple that with our comparitively very wide front frame and you'd have a monster width change, probably much wider than desirable. I would guess it to be on the order of +3 possibly +4, PER SIDE. Now, the 450R shocks on the other hand...? Quote
