LaegerEliminator Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 Didn't make an offer. Don't think it's for me... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Why not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagged155 Posted December 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 Why not? Lots of mixed components... I'm not a MX racer. Point of my build isn't to have the fastest most capable bike. If that was my goal I would buy a new 450 and mod it out. I want to build a top of the line quality Banshee that is timeless.

Do a few mods to it like the subframe, clean up and gusset a few things, and buy the best suspension components you can afford. Roll or Fireball Long Travel would be the way to go.

jagged155 Posted December 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 OEM frame doesn't like takin hits that's why aftermarket frame is better for any dirt After speaking with some companies that have done full builds with and without aftermarket frames, they cautioned my that stuff just never lines up correctly. Two competitive companies suggested gusseting my factory frame, even if price was no object. One of them actually used to sell the Lobo chassis...

LaegerEliminator Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 (edited) Jake at Six5Designs does some absolutely Amazing work!!!

I'm going to strongly consider taking my bike there when it's home from redline. If I cannot find a roll swinger, I'll more then likely take it to S5D. Have him make the nerf bars, a arms, and rear end. Sorry I jacked the thread for a sec. Jake at Six5Designs does some absolutely Amazing work!!!

How did you hear about this company? I've never seen their stuff. But then again, I probably never looked.

Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk see it a lot on the 450 bikes. He used to mostly do honda but now he's getting more bikes.

locogato11283 Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 LOL. Six 5 isn't going to mess with some junk fucking Banshee. That dude builds parts for people who want to spend big money. There's no incentive for him to ever even look at a Banshee chassis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
