Should I get a shee?? or not.
1996 YAMAHA BANSHEE, boost bottle, K&N filter, fly handlebars, flame seatcover, dura blue axle, needs rebuilt $1500 OBO
Is that somthing you would take a chance on, its in KY and im in MN, so I could get it shipped here for around $300, and if its just the top end that needs to be rebuilt I would actualy like to have experience in that.
Thanks for any replies,
Mark

Banshee are great I have two right know and just sold three other ones this year. I love the powerband it's so much better to play with then the four stokes. I was the only one with an banshee and my 3 friends had raptors and I had soooo much more fun just making my own jumps by hitting any mound or gravity pit in the woods. It would take them days of me hitting it before the would. They suspenion and a-arms aren't the best stock but they do work out ok. Like other people said go with the pipes first...
If any of you still see those that need a top end for sale let me know expecially a 98 for 500 bucks i'll buy that in a second. I just rebuilt my top end. The first time I ever worked on the engine, had no experience it took me about 5 hours and $150 bucks for the weisco rebuild kit. It was cake to do.
I don't think I would buy another quad other then a banshee....Owner for life...

Thanks, if all it needs is a top end, with the frame, susp., and other stuff in good cond. is that an ok deal, or should I wait another year for an extra $1000 to come in, and get one closer to home so I can look it over? The reason Im getting this quad is to have as a project over the summer and fix it up.
I understand what you are saying Bat but I dont have a good job yet, and would like somthing to ride around until then.

I just read this post!!!!
Mark, make sure you DO NOT buy it from another state and have it shipped to you, you will regret it!!!!!!
Find one local, look at it and if it starts up and idles fine, you should be ok...
My advice, stay away from ebay too...
When they sell it online like that, trust me your asking for trouble...
Think about it, why couldn't they sell it locally?
Good luck, let me know what you find...

My first banshee I bought new from a local dealer. My second I bought of ebay and it was just as described I didn't even see it. My third and fourth I bough off atvtraderonline out of state sent the money and them picked them up about a month later and they were both up to par and for a great deal.. My last one I bought off ebay again. I have had no problems but I would suggest talking with the person first by phone.. checking feedback... sending emails to see how the respond. You can get a pretty good feeling about the person. Yes you are going to have a higher risk but it's kind of like risk versue reward. I can buy one local for a stock one the best deal I could find was like 5k for a 2002 with not mods. I found a 2002 in atvtrader with a 409cc big bore kit, tommey t-5's 38mm pwks, duarblue +2 axle brand new holeshots on Douglas red label rims, and lonestar hubs for 4k.. That's a big differnce in price.
