stock vs stock the yfz is far better then a banshee and faster. u will not be able to mod a yfz like u can do a banshee so if u are in to drag racing and have a ton of money get the banshee but if u are in for any other kind of riding get the yfz. a banshee will never handle like a yfz on an mx track or trail riding. but they arent enough mods for the yfz to even compete with a modded drag banshee.

that depends- how fresh is the motor? if it needs to be rubuilt, then it isn't that great of a deal. does the transmission shift smoothly? if it doesn't, you may need to repair it. and that can get expensive. what shape are the tires in? if they are all 4 shot, you are looking at around 200-300 to replace them all.

what would be a good deal for like an average fair condition 87shee wiht those mods... sorry its an 87 not 88. and its bored .30 over has fmf gold series pipes, bead lock wheels, new tires 95% tread, new carbs, engine rebuilt about a year ago and hasn't been riden much since.

They were J-arms. you can get conversion kits for couple hundred bucks to allow it to run a-arms... You can get a conversion kit from ATV Racing

i would agree with head but the yfz is still new you cant expect all of its parts to come out a few months after it came out
