Well, first of all, sorry to hear about your bad luck. Second, I would have to say that you should have checked this thing over before you bought it; the things you mentioned are very obvious problems. Third, I have to ask; did you put pre-mixed gas/oil in the tank??? I ask this because of the problems that Banshees may have, blowing up motors is not one of them. The engines in these are rock solid.

 

I never had a chance to put new gas in it, I asked the guy if the mix was right and he said that it was. I knew it was rigged just diddnt realize how bad until I started taking it apart. anyways I dont even care, one day this will be a fat ride, I see it in it. :-) anybody have extra back plastic?
