1fastmofo Posted July 9, 2008 Report Posted July 9, 2008 I went to the Yamaha Canada website and they do not have the Banshee listed as a 2009 model. Are they finally done making the Banshee? If so.....RIP Quote
jamebo Posted July 12, 2008 Report Posted July 12, 2008 I don't know if it's the end of them or not, but yeah, if it is then I hate to see them go. One good thing though is since there were so many in production for so long we should have parts readily available for years to come. Quote
TeamRealtreeHD Posted July 12, 2008 Report Posted July 12, 2008 I am going to get me another one for future expenditure I think. Just in case some happens to mine now. I really doubt parts will be an issue for years to come either. Once the King, still is and always will be the king. Banshees kick ass, hands down Quote
will fox Posted July 12, 2008 Report Posted July 12, 2008 i herd they were making a 500cc 4 stroke banshee that has yfz 450 fenders and lights and there puting the 500 snowmobile engine in it but i didnt here anymore about it Quote

Dirtwheels magazine did an April fools article in their mag awhile back about that and photo-shopped a picture of "the new Banshee". That's how the rumor got started, but there aren't really any in production. Quote
YTRY4 Posted July 12, 2008 Report Posted July 12, 2008 I was told this week that it is coming from my Yamaha Dealer. http://www.yamaha-motor-europe.com/product...sure/yfz350.jsp Im glad i have my Black and Orange 2008 :biggrin: Quote
2K1Banshee350 Posted July 12, 2008 Report Posted July 12, 2008 wow. makes me wonder how long they'll keep making it Quote

And my 99. Oh and my 02. Never enough. Looking at a 98. Quote
Dead Op Posted July 13, 2008 Report Posted July 13, 2008 The tree huggers gave a deadline to end production of the Banshees I believe it was 2007, that was the final year. They made 2008's in Canada but I think its over now... Quote
05.Banshee.SE Posted July 13, 2008 Report Posted July 13, 2008 I think they have the '09 in Europe... Isn't that what the above link is? Quote
06BaNsHeE Posted July 14, 2008 Report Posted July 14, 2008 wow hopefully the 09 banshees dont like like the 07 and 08s.They need to change them up! Quote
YTRY4 Posted August 30, 2008 Report Posted August 30, 2008 Banshee 2009 Models are for sale in Australia :biggrin: Took these shots yesterday at a yamaha dealer in midland, which means i can get spares for ages Quote
SprayBomb Posted September 23, 2008 Report Posted September 23, 2008 So how much are they in Australia ??? I guess some people would be crazy enough to have somebody buy & ship them one over Quote
