German Shepherd Posted September 29, 2004 Report Posted September 29, 2004 Alba is claiming 60 rear wheel with a pipe, jet kit, then they give you a basic port job and mill the head. Should I buy a banshee from them and then let them do the basic port? They will sell you a new banshee with a pipe for 6000.00 Quote
ledofthezep Posted September 29, 2004 Report Posted September 29, 2004 If you can get all of that done for the tune of 6g's...not a bad deal at all. Quote
German Shepherd Posted September 29, 2004 Author Report Posted September 29, 2004 http://www.albaaction.com/atv/index.htm No It would be 6 plus shipping, then I would have to pay for the porting. Quote
Big Blue Posted September 29, 2004 Report Posted September 29, 2004 where do you live at, ive heard shipping on bike from them is kind of high. Quote
Wallrat Posted September 30, 2004 Report Posted September 30, 2004 Make sure you find out what the hidden costs are. They wanted to charge me $9400 for a YFZ 450. Alba makes great claims (all the basic mods for same msrp) but then they tack on huge "dealer handling fees". They're great for parts, but I'd never send them my engine. Check PassionRE on this site, everybody seems to love his engines. Quote
locogato11283 Posted September 30, 2004 Report Posted September 30, 2004 i think id find a stock 02 or 03 for about 3500 bucks and have it ported by someone else. ive never heard anything either way about albas porting. i didnt even know they did porting. Quote
Wallrat Posted September 30, 2004 Report Posted September 30, 2004 If he's in California a stock 02 or 03 will run him about $4500-$5000. Quote
German Shepherd Posted September 30, 2004 Author Report Posted September 30, 2004 Hey guys I am in PA. Quote
bigwill Posted September 30, 2004 Report Posted September 30, 2004 Seek out NYUK-he could probably get you something nice for 2500 to 3500 slighty modded and with the extra money-you could build a monster shee with your own personal touch he is in your area Quote
