Rtr Posted March 30, 2011 Report Posted March 30, 2011 Oh , should I mention its an 06 still in the Crate ??? A guy I ride sled with owns the Local Yamaha Dealership and he was telling me that he had bought out a dealer out west that still had about 10 Shee's still in the crate (apperantly the other dealer didnt do very well in business) . So my friend John bought all his inventory , to put it in perspective one of the things he got was an 01 SRX 700 STILL IN THE CRATE lol ... anyway back to my point , We were sledding one day and when we stopped at the golf club for dinner I asked him if I could buy one UNASSEMBLED , he said SURE !! fast forward 3 weeks and here we are , I talked the wife into it or as I like to call her ... the warden... anyway at some point this week Im going over to do paperwork on it , Im going to assemble it and ride the shit out of it ... I doubt an 06 shee will ever bring the money that Andy Seibels 86 250r trike bought or Id leave it in the crate and store it in my shop , hell for the money Im spending Id prob put it next to my bed if I did that , but no Im going to ride it , I have an 89 Quadracer 250 in MINT CONDITION that I never ride and I still LOVE 2 strokes so Im gonna let the Warden ride the Can AM outlander and Ima play on the Banshee .... only one thing scares me (no not the power my lil 250 will spank a stock shee) and its staying stock for at least one season YA RIGHT !! LOL anyway thats what scares me though ... Banshees have SOOOOOOOO much aftermarket support Im used to owning a bike thats been out of productiion for 20+ years and doesnt get much development , Im probably going to go BANKRUPT with this thing hahahaha... anyway I just wanted to introduce myself and let all you Shee Junkies know that there are still brand new ones to be had if your looking ... Only problem is they are in Northern Maine and he wants 7k for em .... NO IM NOT PAYING THAT MUCH !!! But I know him well and Im buying it unassembled so I saved a little coin there !!! Just in case anyones interested the dealership is called Gary's Yamaha in Caribou Maine and Im sure hell ship em if needed , especially if they are still in the crate Ill follow up with some pics of the assembley / un crating proccess in a couple weeks , we stilll have a couple feet of snow on the ground so its no rush for me !!! Im probably gonna stare at the crate for at least a few days , this is the 1st brand new bike Ive had since I was 14 and got my Yz 125 and I rode that one home from the dealer so this is all new/cool for me !!

06specialedition Posted March 30, 2011 Report Posted March 30, 2011 Welcome to BansheeHQ! Congrats on the new purchase. When you are ready for aftermarket parts I would recommend calling a site sponsor and buying through them Quote
