Been thinking about selling my 450 or possibly trading it for another banshee. If I do trade, I woudl like to do a straight across trade for something of equal value. Not sure on what I would ask for it if I sell it outright. Give me some offers if anyone is interested or if you have something you would be interested in trading straight across show me what you got.

 

2006 YFZ450

Intake manifold from ebay w/ K&N Filter.

Baffle removed from exhaust.

I welded an older set of banshee pegs (minus their mounting bracket) to the footpegs on the 450. Made them a little wider for a passenger, since I was riding double for a while. I can cut them off or leave them welded on if you want them on there.

Both front and rear plastics have been cut and painted black.

 

Other than that its all totally stock. Starts right up and runs freaking awesome!

And its got more on it since you left her... new tire rod ends, new ball joints, plastics all redone, engines going to all redone, polished every part on it, carbs re built.... tempting :evil: I love that damn YFZ, and you know a lot more about two strokes then I ever will....

Which ball joints did you replace? All of the ones on the a-arms?

 

Maybe after we get yours put back together we could meet up with both rides and trade back and forth. LOL

 

Hopefully my truck will be fixed here before too long and we could meet in the next couple weeks and I could bring the 450 out and maybe we could meet up there at my ranch and I could show you around. Would be fun.

what are you thinking of asking? like $4500?

 

Honestly I have no idea man. I was more interested in what offers people put out there to see what I might be able to get for it. It is an 06 though, in really good condition with a sound engine.

Bigred, is there any reason you want to trade it off or anything? Is it just not what you want? Just asking cause im thinking about picking up one to go along with the shee. You seem to do the same type of riding i do, just curious.

I got it more as a backup bike to ride when I was working on the shee. Its a great machine and has incredible power in factory form. My only complaint about it is the suspension is kinda stuff for my style of riding. Even at the softest setting its still a little hard for my tastes. Its got more a 2-stroke powerband to it and hits really hard in the midrange.

 

I've just always been more into the 2-strokes and the banshees and can't really seem to make myself as interested in modding the 450 as I am about the two-strokes. Its fun, just not really my kinda fun.

Hey man. Im tossing around the idea of parting out my shee to buy a 450 so maybe we could work something out on the trade end. I got pretty much new 358 cubs and pistons( less then 10 hours) vforce 2 reeds, prodesign cool head, fmf sst pipes, 33 Kein carbs (new), Boss billet intake (new / 2 piece), K&N pods with outewares (less than 10 hours), lots of matching bling and dress up stuff. It is fucking arm ripping right now man. I have only been on it for maybe 10 min since I got back to the states and put it back together but its mean for sure.

yeah we are working on it now, chaning all the ball joints, straightning the one tie rod, changing all the tie rod ends, and putting those new front spindles on. The front end will be all brand new then, should be pretty nice. After we get it painted, front end back together, motor put together, we should be ready for a run. I would love to come up to your place and ride around, would be fun. :beer:

Do you have any other pictures of it? I like that you already have a cub.

Bump. Anyone else have offers / trades? Would like to see another shee in its place. :confused:
