[blasta510]

Hello,

im thinking about getting a banshee, and i found this on craiglist

and i talked to the guy over the phone, he said it needs tuning and dosent run really good,

he said he bought it from his friend about 7months ago and knows noting about it at all.

so im wondering if they put the diffrent exhaust on it and did not rejet it???

im wondering if this would be a good deal, he told me he would take 2300?

 

Please let me know.

thanks

well do you think that is whats wrong with it, because of the pipe if they didnt jet it right.

thanks

I dont find 2300 to be a bad deal. It could be bad jetting or a simple leak and those are cheap fixes. I'd check the compression and make sure everything else is tight on the bike before giving him the cash.

 

As always, look around a lot before you settle on a bike. Took me 3 months to find my shee...it was well worth it. :biggrin:

Yeah i would look around first too, friend just bought a 03 lrd limited edition banshee with toomey exhause, handlebars, k&n double filters, and a few other things for 2500 bucks. They probably just didn't know how to take care of that bike whoever had it. All banshees need some TLC.
