Ronnie Posted June 13, 2013 Report Posted June 13, 2013 OK. I have a 1999 Banshee and everything seems to be going wrong. I need parts that are not crazy expensive. The motor is leaking oil from the the base gasket. also the chain roller and chain tensioner. The front wheel hubs bearings are shot. All the shocks are shot. the exuast o- rings and springs are shot and the pipes leak. I burned a hole in the seat and it needs replaced. Can anybody help me find a place that sells the parts i need for a fair price? I am really freaking out cause i traded my race car for this bike and when it was brought to me he had it cleaned so well you couldnt tell anything was wrong. Now everythings wrong and its summer and i want to ride not build the bike then winter comes and i cant ride it. Please somebody help me out here. I have been looking al over the net and the prices for the parts are crazy too crazy might as well take it to yamaha dealership and have them fix it for what i would have to pay for the parts ive been looking at.

aztwin350 Posted June 13, 2013 Report Posted June 13, 2013 i always check out the local craigslist and ebay but thats just me. good luck with it Quote
Deadbeat Posted June 13, 2013 Report Posted June 13, 2013 bearings, o-rings and exhaust springs are chump change, there is penty of peeps parting out bikes on here, so you can buy rest for cheap, its the leaking base gasket i would be concerned about... Quote
Deadbeat Posted June 13, 2013 Report Posted June 13, 2013 id replace the wheel bearings, tighten everything and just keep riding it until winter, if it blows up, you swapped a dog that needed a rebuild anyway Quote
Starwriter Posted June 13, 2013 Report Posted June 13, 2013 You traded for a pig. I bet you end up spending about $1,000 to make it right. If you continue riding it before fixing it, add 50%. Quote
J-Madd Posted June 13, 2013 Report Posted June 13, 2013 You'll need to pressure test it to see if the base gasket is leaking,or spray carb cleaner on it while it is running and see if the rpms change. That most likely is just the leaky exhaust running down the case. Quote
