Once you get a banshee it will probably change your mind about light mods. lol

HIGHS: 2 stroke, yamaha, last year of making, power, speed, duning king, tons of parts, top end and lots more.. (just a few off the top off my head)

LOWS: low end, have to do 2 times the work (carbs, pipes, ect.), and its handleing.

Another thing i've noticed with banshees... really all performance 2 strokes, is that they guzzle gas like you wouldn't believe. This can be a problem if you go on long rides away from your truck/trailer and you aren't close to your fuel source.
