bansheejoel Posted March 12, 2008 Report Posted March 12, 2008 (edited) i know its not in the right fourm but thought this one would be best as far as people seeing it. So my cousin and i went and looked at a 1989 banshee today for him. The guy wanted $1200, it is in pretty good shape with a set of t-5s with tommey spark arresters, and +4 swingarm. But the sprocket is welded on, tires are shot, brakes are shot, and it needs a new seat cover. So to make a long story short my cousin offered him $900 but refused and said "i cant take $900 i need atleast $1100. So we had planned on buying it anywase but acted like we wernt interested and said "no thanks not for $1100" And he goes well i do have a spare engine for it that i bought for a go-cart project back in 1998 and its been sitting downstairs in my basement. He said If you give me $1200 cash for it ill throw in the engine. So...i gave my cousin 200 bucks for it and i got a 93 shee engine for $200 and he got a 89 shee for $1000. I got it home took off the stator cover, put a socket on a drill and turned it over with the compression guage and it has 128psi in one and 131psi in the other!! I wish i would have known this before i sent out my jugs and head to get done. Edited March 12, 2008 by bansheejoel Quote
