Hi,my girlfriend owns a 99 banshee and i own a 1988 lt250r. The lt250 steers way way better and easier than the banshee.The banshee seems like it wants to push straight when your turning tight.I love the banshees power though,her banshee will murder mine in a drag. what are some things you can do to a banshee to make it steer easier,or handle better in general.Im not to concerned about it suspension-wise i guess,It just seems like its a tank to steer.Any suggestions?

 

bump

 

Wheel spacers widen it in back and front. Extended axle will widen back but it like 200 for G-Force and 300 for Dura-Blu. A-Arms but they like 700 bucks. It aint cheap thats for sure!

 

try some new front tires....

 

that also... lol

 

Get an extended axle, and front wheel spacers, and put Holeshots all around...

 

just gun it, Banshees were not designed to turn, well, its rare to see at Dumont anyway. lol

 

it has brand new holeshots on back and front,and new bearings and bushings all around.It is not a traction problem.it doesnt feel like it is going to flip at anytime really,its mainly at low speeds,like you can really feel it riding on pavement,it just doesnt want to turn,i love the quad though,i just couldnt believe how much more user friendly the steering was on the quadracer.

 

My Banshee used to have stiff steering. All I did was take apart the steering stem and grease it all up and make sure all the moving parts are good.

 

its costly, but get a shortened swingarm. it'll turn sharper but a trade off is it'll wheelie more.
