Man do me a favor and dont buy a banshee. Unless you are only going to ride on dry land or in the sand. The banshee is helpless in the snow and mud. It is a lot of maintnance. The engine is like a time bomb. But I love the way they screem. I had a brand new one for only 3 months and traded it in. I got sick of getting stuck and not being able to go where we were with the raptors and 400EXs. If I was you I would look for a good 250R or buy a four stroke quad. Take my advice dont buy a brand new banshee. If you do buy one buy a use one and biuld it up.

The thing about the time bomb. I said that because they were out faster than others. I would neaver sink any of my machines in mud or snow. I was saying that you cant go through much because of the excesive wheele spin. Because of that wicked power band. Im not saying its a bad bike im just saying that its only good for sertain riding conditions. I tell you what some day i will own another banshee because it was the best bike i ever had for riding in the pits i go to a lot. I also love the snappy power of the machine. But before i buy another im going to sell my 426 and buy a Z400/KFX400.
