A Banshee would be much easier to rebuild than any 4-stroke. Those of us who are die hard 2-stroke enthusaists dont want anything else. As with any wheeler they need normal maintenence. The bone stockers will last a long time when taken care of. More mods equal more power and that means more maintenence.

if youre thinking about a shee, lemme tell you theyre great. going from a 300ex to a shee is going to be very different. a shee is so fast and they handle differently, as well as have a very different personality. if you ride a lot of slower trails i really dont reccommend it. theyre great bikes for desert, fast open trails, or dunes though. as for it being a pain because its a two stroke, its all about what kind you get. if you get a used one in crappy condition, it will probably not last long and will require a lot of work and maintenance. if you get one in good condition, it should be fine, and will only require standard maintenance. they're total powerhouses and have unlimited capabilities with mods. if youre looking to have the fastest bike around, theres nowhere better to start than with a banshee.

I would not say the banshee is a prob to maintain.If you take care of it it will take care of you. Use a good oil!!!!
There is no sweeter sound then a singing Banshee.
