saleensonoma Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 I live in NW Ohio in Swanton(by toledo). Im 25 and a yamaha lover and only own yamaha. I bought a 95 banshee in 04 pretty much stock even down to the wonderful purple/yellow plastic. Well had knarlys on back, put filter on it(factory sucks) blah blah blah the usaual. Took everything off to stock bc got a 06 450 early in yr and put bunch of sparks stuff on it. ended up sellin banshee to friend, he didnt do anythin to it except put blue plastic on it, fixed normal things. I also around that time sold my 97 blaster bought new in 97. Well ended up losing the 450 during a break up but it was for the best. Bought 07 R1 feb 07 that was the best lol. Well got the banshee back so decided to get on the forum. Im mainly into anything with motors and fast, I own the banshee, r1, 92 gmc typhoon and 89 saleen. Working on gettin a 96-98 cobra to play with now. I ride pretty much anywhere, nelsonville, hatfield, badlands, silver lake and ogema sport and trails by rose city mich. Well im lookin into the new 450r but will wait till '10 model comes out and plan on tt the banshee. Sorry for the book and feel free to say what ever. Ive been a toomey guy but r guys serious bout fmf and pc bein great all around pipes for low, mid and even on top sorta!!! Quote

jlsparky7 Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 (edited) Welcome man. Im in the same boat as you. I have an 04 banshee and an 08 R1. I had an 02 R6, took it to the track (grattan) and thought it was waaaay underpowered. I went out and bout an 08 R1 for 10,600 OTD and never looked back. This bike is absolutely unbelieveable. 35mpg 180hp 0-60 in less than 3 seconds. Amazing, those japanese know there shit. Hard to believe all these harley guys think they are the shit.... Do you take your R1 to the track? Edited March 19, 2009 by jlsparky7 Quote
dragbanshee Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 Welcome to the HQ, that usually happens, get rid of banshee, then get another. As for the pipes, stick with the toomey's. Quote
