I was at Pismo this last weekend and seen a alot of bikes out there that was pretty fast. Well I wanted to know if anyone was there and seen or heard the banshee that had a street bike motor and exhaust system on it? You can hear it coming before you seen it and it was a tough sounding quad!! I think it had either a 750 or a 1100cc motor installed and it was a clean install. That bike ripped up competition hill so fast that I dont think any quad out there touched it. I didnt get a chance to go by and check it out but sure would like to know what was in it. I seen a few people taking pics of it and gathering around checking it out. The only thing I think that was bad about it was its stopping, I mean when he tried to stop that bike it looked as if it was going to buck him off but overall it ran up the hills just fine and looked to be set in a nice frame that wouldnt hold you back from doing anything else with it.

Please if you seen or heard of it let me know.

Thanks

Yes it did have the pipe coming under the rear of the bike like a street bike. Was that thing fast or what!! I was sitting up on the South side of the hill looking down. Did you get a chance to find out what was in that thing? I sure did like the ripping sound it made when it was flying up the hill though.

The one I saw I believe was red silver and yellow that was ruling the hill until that red banshee with the street bike showed up and left him behind. I believe it was Sunday about 2.00pm when I seen it.
