slopoke Posted June 12, 2009 Report Share Posted June 12, 2009 well to be technical if you buy to identical cars they will not be exactly the same speed as these things are massed produced. so you could have 2 87 banshees that are identical and one would be faster.

I just took the clutch out the other day, and it was the stock 20YO clutch, still had brittle O-rings in it and the basket was so loose on the drive gear it would move almost an inch in either direction, and still beat up on the 05's dunno, go figgure.

Overboost Posted June 13, 2009 Report Share Posted June 13, 2009 (edited) My 85 banshee has quad power bands. They were outlawed in 86. sweet, I heard they were so fast, they recalled all of them in 85 and 86, thats why they are so hard to find now. I seen one on ebay with the bidding up to $96,000 and had 3 days left almost as rare as this one http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2003-Limite...A317|240%3A1318 check out the price, and the reserve is still not met, and it has bids...
