Default banshee too fast

thats, the point, if it never hits the powerband it will be slow [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img] which is what he says he wants. BTW, here are the rev limiters. http://www.pro-flo.com/proflo_dyna_acc_2.htm
Would have to play with the limit until its driveable though.

hmm. he would have to do some research first or ask dyna which one would work, im not sure if there is a cheap one that will work on a banshee.

I just bout a brand new shee in the middle of april. Ive never owned a quad b4 and only ridden 2 others a 400ex and a predator. If you respect the banshee and not get stupid with it you will be fine. The only time i wiped out in 10 tanks of gas is when i was trying a wheelie and my bake brake failed.

Thanks for all the help guys, but i found a used 300 ex for really cheap. I think that was a better choice than getting the banshee because i wont have to mess around with a rev limiter or anything,
Thanks,
Marcus

i wouldnt recommend a 2 stroke for a first quad but if you be careful it shouldnt be a problem. it is just htat those banshees have powerband that is quite a handful. but if you know your limits you will be fine. if you get it and your dad if afraid you will go too fast just adjust the throttle screw, its super easy to do and it keeps you from opening the throttle up to full.

They are a bit of a handful. Wheelsup, no offense but banshees are fast (even stock) and although most ppl with riding experience can handle them pretty easily, even modded ones, a stock one for somebody with no riding experience is a little iffy.

As long as you make sure you respect whatever you get you'll be safe, just know your limits and dont do anything you dont think you can handle or dont think your bike can handle. Also, if you are going to go with the 300ex or something similar, thats more like what i would suggest. You might grow out of it in a couple years and think you need more power but its better than getting yourself in too deep and ending up really hurt. I'm not a safety nut, I just value riding time more than hospital time.
