LaegerBanshee Posted September 25, 2005 Report Share Posted September 25, 2005 Banshee fans I need your help. Once again a Banshee is getting the shaft from all the 4 Stroke Lovers and not the respect it deserves. Please vote for my Banshee over on www.exriders.com. Here's the link: http://www.exriders.com/vbb/showthread.php?threadid=183251 Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STLBILL Posted September 25, 2005 Report Share Posted September 25, 2005 I don't have an account there. Why do you? If it's Banshee respect you want stay here. We all know and don't need any convincing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaegerBanshee Posted September 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2005 I'm just trying to get the "non believers" to see the light. If you don't advertise, you'll never get anywhere. If more people sang the praises of the Banshee, then maybe it would be in the lineup for next year. Or at least, Yamaha would have made some changes other than "bold new graphics".

LaegerBanshee Posted September 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2005 I don't think I get in any mags. I just want to see a banshee as the winner, instead of another 4 stroke. I'm pretty sure a banshee has never won. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaegerBanshee Posted September 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 I wasn't talking about lack of sales. I was referring to the poor reviews on the Banshee from the so called "experts" at the mags. They would rate a 400EX as a better machine??? Come on, you were fine with getting the same Banshee every year with the only changes being graphics and fender color choices. That was bogus, Yamaha should have stepped up and updated it in 12 years. I do agree with you on the Tree huggers. They, along with the folks at PETA should be shot.

Rooster Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 I know we're getting way off topic here but I thought I'd chime in on the updating Banshee thing. I've had mine for almost 14 years and LOVE it. I just wish Yamaha would have done more improvements over the years, then maybe more people would have bought them and Yamaha would have said "bite me" when the pressure was on to stop building them. The stock frame (weld quality, etc) sucks! My old Honda was way better as far as quality goes - it just couldn't keep up with the "Big Boys".
