The Banshee 500 isn't a confirmed real quad. It's certainly not in production mode and certainly not owned and being modified by anyone yet.

ya there is no such thing as the quad in that picture of that video. All it was is somebodys photoshop creation between the front of a yfz and rear of a banshee.

well my mistake then. But the one on the guys youtube video link really does look fake. take a look closely at the fran where the motor sits it doesnt look right. i pretty sure that particular pic is a fake. the one on dirt wheels may be real. i havnt seen it

That was a CGI image in the April issue of Dirtwheels. They said it was as close as they could come up with by only going with the info their spy in Japan gave them. It does help to reeeeeeeeeead the article!!

it could be a publicity stunt to get more people to buy dirtwheels to see the "banshee 500"
