screamingtwin Posted February 20, 2004 Report Posted February 20, 2004 Are Banshee's any good at motocross??? Quote
ledofthezep Posted February 20, 2004 Report Posted February 20, 2004 If they're setup correctly, yes. In stock form, no. Mine's setup for MX,...feel free to checkout my site for the mods & pics. http://www.angelfire.com/extreme4/ledofthezep Quote
broke Posted February 21, 2004 Report Posted February 21, 2004 They can be good, but they will never be the best at it. There are quite a few on here that have set there's up for exactly that. Blue Duece, Meat, Bigmotoxer, Banchetta and many others have set ups that are worth checking out. I have done just about everything to set mine up for MX except the - length swingarm. Suspension is the real game when you are building an MX Banshee. An engine that hits down low and smoothly is what you are going to be after. But even a stock Banshee is fun on the track. http://www.planetsand.com/memberphotos/142...20%28183%29.jpg http://www.planetsand.com/memberphotos/142...%20%2850%29.jpg Those pictures are of Tim Farr's second race on the 450r, just to get into the same class, it must have been set up right. broke Quote
Blue Duece Posted February 21, 2004 Report Posted February 21, 2004 i think they are nice for the longer desert tracks, if you've got something down low you can pull away from the R's and thumpers through the straights, but you need a chassis and suspension that will let you hang on.....and banshee's are all around fun bikes to ride......

FoxBansheeRacing Posted February 21, 2004 Report Posted February 21, 2004 Yamaha blue is the best, but stress mark blue sucks. Quote
