What should I do

['SheeRider07]

I am going to be buying a Banshee here soon and Im not sure what I want to do yet. I am either going to buy a complete running Banshee or either a rolling chasis Banshee and modify it the way I want it.

 

What way do you think will be cheaper?

 

All I really want done to the Banshee would be pipes, silenceres, air filters, nerfs, bumper, bars, grab bar, skids, and then eventurally Elkas, +2 a-arms, +4 a-arms and so-on.

 

I was just thinking of donig the project so I can buy all of the aftermarket stuff at once.

 

What way do you think will be better or cheaper and why?

 

Also, how much do you think it will cost for a Banshee frame, rear shock, engine, wiring harness, radiator, and gas tank?

most of the time you can probably find a banshee set up the way you ant of real close for cheaper than you can build it for....just my.02 cents!!

+4 a-arms and so-on.

you can get +4s for a banshee or any quad?

I think he meant swing arm.

Ah, I dont know what I was thinking. I meant to say +2 a-arms and +4 axle.

 

Sorry about that

 

But, how much do you think a Banshee set up the way I listed would cost compared to building one up myself?

It depends on where you're located. Around here, for what you listed, I'd say around $4000.00 for a newer one. It would be quite a bit cheaper to try and find a quad that has everything on it, or close to everything. I personally don't see too many rolling chasis' around here. What would stop you from making a "project" out of a stock quad? Hell....look at Sredish!!

That's true. I've been thinking about buying a used low hour '03 Banshee off this one guy that has barely rode it and then mod it out slowly when the money comes in. I think it would probably be better to buy one like this, that way I know that he never abused it, etc. Plus, in the pics, it looks like brand new. Do you think $3,800 is a good deal on a 2003 Black/Red Banshee? It is still in like new condition and he just took recent pics of it and it was dirty, but the plastics were still shining like the day it was new.

 

Also, I have a chance to get a good deal on a Raptor, too.

 

What do you think is better, a Raptor or a Banshee? I have always wanted a Banshee ever since I saw one, so I think I will probably get one. I dont really like the high center of gravity that the Raptor has.

 

But, what do you think would be better for me a Raptor or a Banshee? I will do some trail riding (mainly open trails where I can open it up at), hill climbs, some MX, etc.
