I just bought a 2000 banshee 3 weeks ago. I noticed it was sitting crooked. I thought maybe a blown front shock or somthing but it turned out to be a bent swing arm!!! I measured from the front hub to the back on both sides and it was 1" off!!! It is bent so the axle sits crooked and it is twisted. I never crashed it or jumped it very high at all. So anyone who has a crooked Banshee just lift up the back end and if the front ends goes level than that is what is wrong. i am planning on replaceing it with a aftermarket unit. If anyone knows the best one to get let me know.

i have a buddy that build +4/+6 over swing arms out of new materials and bearings powder coated or preped for chrome,pretty reasonable on price too. i bought one and i'm happy with it +6 chrome i'm into it for about $400.dollars total. it's about 10-12 onces lighter than stock and as strong if not stronger. tc, fatboys motorsports

I've busted up three stock Banshee swingarms so far. I just ordered one from www.rickystator.com. The price is $335.00 and it comes with a Cascade chain slider. I expect it any day. Check out the web site.

 

Just got the new swingarm from rickystator.com. I would recomend it. Looks great and the welds are very nice.
