Today was the day

To make a short story long... About 5 years ago I traded a set of ITP wheels off of a Yamaha Big Bear for a banshee that needed "motor work". The bike had been sitting at his house for two years and was in bad shape. It sat in my shop/storage room for another two, always meaning to start on the project, but never did. 2 years ago I was going on a trip to Europe, and sold it to my buddy for some cash to ... So about 6 months ago I ran into him in my home town and I asked him if he still had the bike. Turns out he did, and his wife was preganant, and he was liquidating all fun assests lol.. I looked over the bike, and started posting topics on here, and reading the forums all the time. Turns out the bike already had some really nice suspension aftermarker parts, and a few saveable parts off the motor. A guy (ZillaFreak) on here sold me a great bottom end, and I had some used cylinders bored and honed. Ordered all the other parts I needed, carbs, filters, jets, chains, tires etc. I kept hearing Jeff at Fast as a guy that was really good with the bikes and would talk banshee with you on the phone. Called him up, ordered some parts, received TOP NOTCH customer service. After 7 years of sitting up, a couple of moments. and alot of today was the day. Got it tuned and synced up and took it down the the air strip out here and ran the piss outta it. Today was the first day I have ever even heard a banshee run, much less ridden one, and now im hooked..

 

Sorry for the long story, but I thought it was kinda cool... Again thanks to everyone here who helped me out, and thanks to the folks that keep this site goiing, it was a HUGE help.
