Got an amazing deal on a 2001 banshee. Couldn't pass it up. I have always wanted one for the collection. Now I just need to add a trx250r and I'll be set.

Very nice. Any big plans for it? Found a 99 last year for $900. It was CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN! and STOCK. Would have been very nice to keep, but I found someone who wanted to give me $2300 for it, bye bye it went. I would really like a nice stock banshee to have around again some day.......

I'm gonna go through it and powder coat everything. Probably do reeds, carbs, and intake. It already has FMF pipes and silencers.

Nice and simple. Sounds good.
Very cool bikes. I have owned three and loved everyone of them. As much as I love mine, I'll probably try and sell it this summer. I don't ever ride it and hate to see it sit. Plus I would love to have a Zilla, so it would be bye bye Banshee.

Very nice, you are getting quite the collection of old school pingers. I was deciding between a Banshee and TRX 250R and ended up going for the R just because I love Honda and you don't see alot of them around. It's great the Banshee has so many used parts available since they were made for so long. Nice used parts for the R kill my wallet. I would still like to get a Banshee some day

No. Was right in my home town. It's really funny because it was actually the guy I bought my '87 200X from a few years ago. Which I didn't know at first when I contacted him. So that was a laugh when we found out who each other were.
And it was great because it was literally a 1/4 mile up the road from where I keep my atv's. U can look down the road and the c the driveway. So it's nice when u have no travel time or gas money in it.

Can't beat that with a stick!! :beer
I have something like that going on... There is a guy that has bought 2 sleds and a truck bedliner from me since about 2000. He brokered the deal for my wifes sled... Seems like we just keep buying from and selling to each other.
