how to take the ugly out of a banshee


yfzut

Recommended Posts

come on guys, things could be a lot worse than putting yfz plastics on a banshee. He could be a treehugger sitting at home worrying about the "greenhouse gases" and trying to find ways to keep us out of the trails/areas that we like to ride in.

 

If he wants to put yfz plastics on his banshee let him do it, you build your banshee the way you want, and prove yourself on the hill by roosting him. :bolt:

very soon its bye bye for your 2 stroke banshee

 

Okay, it is very hard to argue with people about this. Take a look at the 250R; Still to this day you can build one from the ground up and they quit making them long ago. The Shee has been around almost 20 years which means the Shee has the most aftermarket capabilities and parts available. You think that company's are going to stop making parts for it because Yamaha doesnt make it anymore? Your straight stupid if you believe that. Far too many people ride a banshee for them to not make parts for them. Get over yourself and realize that just because some 4 Stroke Revolution has come that the 250R, Banshee, and Blaster wont hold a name for theirselves. All of you 4 Jokers underestimate the power of a 2 Stroke, cant handle a powerband because you want smooth delivery...get some skill with the Shee and you can conquer any terrain.

have you rode a yfz, they have alot of snap. the front comes up alot easier on it than my banshee. you dont give the 4 strokes what they deserve.
