My dad doesnt want me playing with the motor on my yfz450 so I think I might buy this to play with. What kind of work do you all think it would need? Top or Bottom? I most likely wont know until I get in there I guess, correct? Thank you. I hope I can join the banshee world.

youve got a lot to learn my friend

Personally I'd get the bike. For $600 who cares whats wrong with it.

AND DO NOT OVER LOOK THIS NEXT PIECE OF ADVICE----------> Get a Clymers Manual and read it cover to cover before you crack a single nut or bolt loose on that bike.

 

There is quite a bit there than can be trashed by digging around. Some things would cost more than $600 to fix. Also, invest in a quality set of tools (Metric of course) a good torque wrench, and the best piece of advice: Stick around BansheeHQ. Dont forget to use the Search function.

Stick to the 4-poke. Tell your dad to f*ck the hell off and put a cam mod in it, pipe it and jet it and you'll probably be happier without the headache of getting that banshee going. It looks like a good parts bike, but not something I'd dump money in.

Stick with your 450. But I'm looking for another shee, where's it located? I might hook you up with some money also

 

Its located right here on ebay. If it wasnt so far from NY Id pick it up for sure. Id love a project bike...

 

banshee on ebay!!!

The price on ebay is going alot higher than what i thought it would too. Since Michigan is far drive from anywhere besides Indiana I figured there would not be very many potential buyers. Yea, that was pretty dumb of me about the battery. On my 450 i have took out the baffle in the muffler, removed the air lid, and got the jetting perfect. When i mentioned the idea of doing a cam mod he didnt like that.

There was a 'shee for like 900 bucks up at lil sahara labor day weekend. It need some cosmetics and the guy said a top end. It had pipes and aftermarket head on it and Lord knows what else. He was in the North campground.. And no I didnt get his number. Damn it!
