duttonkeith Posted December 23, 2010 Report Posted December 23, 2010 Was looking into selling my Banshee and was shocked at just how low complete bikes are going for. I live in the Reno Nevada area and was wondering if you guys could tell me if I would have better luck parting it or selling it. 1990 YAMAHA BANSHEE J Arm second owner very low hour bike. Bike was built by Curtis Sparks racing. Mild port and polish. Bike was dynoed in Reno at 59 HP and 39 LBS Torque. Stock crank. Trinity 2 in 1 intake setup. One trip on brand new CV 35mm Keihin single Carb setup. One trip on brand new VFORCE 3 reeds Bike also has a Trinity Stage IV cool head, not sure of the dome size but the head domes are interchangeable, but the bike is setup currently to RUN ON 110 OCTANE FUEL. Good compression, only 1 to 2 lbs of difference in cylinders The bike also now has one trip on brand new Toomey T5 pipes and silencers. Thanks in advance for the help guys. Quote
Keyser Soze Posted December 24, 2010 Report Posted December 24, 2010 Do you have a copy of the dyno....60hp seems like a ton for mild port work. You would be better parting it for sure. Quote

Ryan2002 Posted December 24, 2010 Report Posted December 24, 2010 If you part it give me a price for the paddles, grab bar, and shocks Thanks Quote
jlevasseur Posted December 27, 2010 Report Posted December 27, 2010 probably better luck parting it out in this day and age... Quote
camatv Posted December 28, 2010 Report Posted December 28, 2010 really depends on how much you think its worth 5000 yea aint happening... if you JUST put pon the pipes and the reeds and the cv carb you just droped quite a bit on it ( i'm guessing 1000 bucks) so i guess you need to figure out what its worth parts wise and no not what the parts are worth not what your asking but what they will SELL for if you part the bike you will end up with a big pile of extra parts j-frames are not worth shit. ( which sucks) i'm guessing you would get about 1000 out of it really quick ( pipes, reeds, paddles, shocks, carbs, plastic, seat, some other piddly parts. ) + fee's if you use ebay, + shipping and the hassel of shipping the parts i personally have been really enjoying craigslist. might get about 2000 out of the whole bike.. so its your decesion i like craigs list cause the buyers are usually local they can see the parts right there in their hands and decided right there and then if they want them no paypal disputes no stupid i didnt get my parts scams no hey these arent shelf brand new bullshit.

camatv Posted December 28, 2010 Report Posted December 28, 2010 59- 60 hp is really easy with ported stockers.... Quote
ENEMYOCD Posted December 28, 2010 Report Posted December 28, 2010 if you part ill take the foot pegs and stock airbox plus the heel guards and maybe the t-5s plus theres a good chance ill be in reno in a few weeks so we can do the deal in person. Quote
xTHUNDERCATx Posted January 18, 2011 Report Posted January 18, 2011 did you get this bike sold or decide to start parting it? Quote
