Sheedawg28 Posted February 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2017 I don't believe, because I own three $10,000+ motors, four sets of hand coned pipes and three custom drag chassis. There's no fucking way to have $30,000 in a Banshee with a 350cc motor unless you inflate the pricing, charge for every minute you work on it or sold it to a moron. That's not nice calling yourself a moron and realizing you were charged for every minute they worked on your junk :-) we all live and learn I can see why even a measly $500 would hurt you now haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunatic619 Posted February 5, 2017 Report Share Posted February 5, 2017 I used to read all the time about "bat boy" being found living in a dumpster behind a supermarket. Since that was printed in a magazine, does that make it true? I guess he really did get abducted by those aliens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheedawg28 Posted February 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2017 Sorry to hijack your thread Manny..... It's all good buddy, we can learn a little something about different set ups in here. I didn't want to get into the other set ups or the other obvious geometry settings it changes and benefits but I'm glad you guys pitched in here. It's the next best option.

RagunCajun Posted February 5, 2017 Report Share Posted February 5, 2017 Cars are a lot like bikes. If you can do the labor CORRECTLY yourself, saves a lot of money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheedawg28 Posted February 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2017 Hi sorry I'm late. So $30Gs in a Banshee...back in the day price even... LOL Can you build me one and tell me it's the best money can buy?! The engine has to cost me more than 10k though that's bare minimum so I can say I have the best of the best...or at least believe that I do because I paid a lot for it.
