Doddy Posted June 1, 2010 Report Posted June 1, 2010 All I can say is "Fuck me right?". Took the bike out for Memorial Day weekend down to Coose Bay to ride with some friends. It was running fine and I was cruising along in 4th gear and all of a sudden POP, BOOM. I got it back to camp finally and it looks like some how I completely ran out of radiator fluid, my radiator was dry as a bone. I haven't had a chance to tear into it yet, I was too pissed to do it over the weekend so I'm prob just going to do it tonight. I just had my motor re-build a month ago and this shit happens...Fucking Banshee's! Quote

I don't think by him posting that "he somehow ran out of fluid" that he was asking for smart ass remarks. Seriously doubt he wants to hear that after he blew his motor. Calling him a dumbass is uncalled for. Things happen, maybe had a leak he didn't notice. People need to grow up, if ya ain't got nothing nice to say, well u know the rest. Quote

Fullthrottle02 Posted June 2, 2010 Report Posted June 2, 2010 i eat 4 strokes has the right idea, just may have taken it alittle too far. Most banshee issues are due to their owners, previous or current. I can understand the frustration thought. Doddy, hope you get it back up a running soon man. Quote
TexasBansheeMan Posted June 2, 2010 Report Posted June 2, 2010 Sux for sure man, hit up on of the sponsors here or just send them your motor for a build Quote
