is the 87 banshee a good machine or what help me out here im looking to buy one

 

There is nothing wrong with the 87 banshee compared to the other year banshees. One of the main differences is the j arm front end which is 10lbs lighter! good for drag racing. now i dont know if your a drag racer or a trail rider.... but the j arms work well in the dunes.... but i dont know how they are for trail riding!

 

I have an 89 with the same j arm setup. The only bad thing about them is when the ball joints go bad, you have to replace the whole arm,at the cost of 112 bux each.
