crustydemon Posted November 6, 2009 Report Posted November 6, 2009 A nice 99 with alot of new stuff, Itp wheels, holeshots,dual rate works up front,pods,durablue axle, tors elim with a twist throttle, new rebuild with new hotrods crank and wiesco pistons done by a reputable shop up here, just broke in. $1500, I thought that was a good deal. Anyway I took it out today and I really couldnt believe it, the son of a bitch is fast as shit. The kid said it was redone in all stock size, new jugs but in curious to see if its been ported or not. I have an extra Noss head I will probably put on it and was going to put my pt mids on because Ive always had something against FMF's but I think I'll ride it for a while and get a feel for it then try the pt's and see if I like them better. I do know one thing, twist throttle's on banshees are not a good idea!!! I never really cared for blue bikes for some reason so it will more than likely be black soon. Quote
bluenblackbanshee Posted November 6, 2009 Report Posted November 6, 2009 (edited) hey if you ever pull that seat cover off im lookin for a stock blue from a 99 thats a nice bike too looks a little like mine lol Edited November 6, 2009 by bluenblackbanshee Quote
crustydemon Posted November 6, 2009 Author Report Posted November 6, 2009 I'll probably use the blue on my "89. Only bad thing about it is that there is no front brakes at all, no rotor,calipers,lines, or anything. I'll have to check ebay and see what I can find. Quote

ELKARACING_SHEE Posted November 12, 2009 Report Posted November 12, 2009 agreed on the bad throttle on banshee's my 01 had one and i hated it, in the corners you have to lean to one side as everyone does and with a twist throttle you lean with the throttle on the side, which means you have a higher chance of getting into an accident Quote
