Buying an '06 this week

[Bansh88]

Hopefully tomorrow, for sure by Thursday, i'm going to Alba to buy my 06 Special Edition. I already have a grocery list of aftermarket for it. I hope to be able to get some REAL discounts on them.

 

What would you guys want on a brand new bike? Maybe you can think of stuff I forgot. Realistic stuff. Not huge engine work or anything.

 

I cant fuckin wait to get it!

[bansheefreestyler]

get some new suspension my friend

[ssanddemon]

Let us know what your'e already getting, that'll help. Hopefully pipes and air filter mods to start...

[pimpeinkc]

well,,,, i have some rock solid advice for you... t-5's, air filter.... my friend has an 02, just pipes and it ripps... my friends girl just dynoed hers,,, last weekend,,, it is an 87. 60 over... all else stock,,,, t-5's.. 52hp...27lbs torque mine with 2into1 with 35mm carb, t-5's coolhead with 21cc domes.... 48hp.. 35 lbs torque..

 

for reliability and speed, t-5's and a filter, be done with it untill you are ready to work on it a lot...

Bansh, if it were me I'd start with the following:

 

-Pipes (T5's are a great choice for a stock engine and respond well to future modifications)

-Lose the OEM air filter setup immediately and replace it with the brand / style of your choice.

-Obviously you'll need to re-jet the carbs, might as well lose the TORS shit while you're there.

-Front shocks set up specifically for your weight, terrain of choice, and riding style, hell some +2+1 A arms while you're at it.

-Another set of IMS pegs, or just swap them of your current bike.

-A comfortable set of handle bars, and while you're at it lose the e-brake and get a new EZ pull clutch lever.

-Lighting upgrade for the night rides.

-8 paddles & a clickwhip.

 

You can probably take it from here, but this is where I would start. Good luck, keep us posted, and congratulations!

yup! My list. I don't think i'll be leaving with all of it.

T5s

Trinity 2 into 1

V force

Paddles and Razors

Trail Techs

IMS pegs

6 pack rack

T2s and clamp

 

Smaller stuff:

Rad light for rear

Clutch perch

 

 

I plan on getting fullbores from a guy I know.

 

All the above mods I have on my Banshee now. Except for T5s. I have FMF.

+4 swingarm commin later. If the guy can make sweet deal on some suspension, I might go for it. But that is $$$$

[noissesboyobyalp]

i cant wait to try out my new bills pipes on my 05 limtied editon. i herd that they work nice on the bike

[Bansh88]

went with just about everything I listed. Had to hold off on any suspension for now.

Might get to pick up bike tomorrow. Most of the parts should be in too! Pics to come.

You read my mind Demon!
