87 banshee
- Thread starter cdiggity
- Start date
if its close go look at it. ride it. take a compression tester and test it. if all seems good go for it but still look over it very carefully. don't ignore anything
some more info would be nice
but from the picture that banshee has
nice rims with some good tires
missing the rad and gas tank cover
has front cut plastic
FMF fatties with FMF silencers
green paint or PC work on some parts
front bumper
looks like it need a seat as while.
if you get it, i have some black rad and gas tank covers and a nice black seat i would sell to you for cheap.

thats what i thought but he says the reason he wants to trade is his son bought this banshee for his first quad and he dosent want him to have a banshee for his first quad. which i dont blame him.
we are meeting friday so i can ride it and he can check out the blaster. but he didint hesatate when i said i want to ride it first.
how much you thinkin on all that stuff if i end up getting it + shipping of course
If the shee isn't a total POS I would do it. And If your able to split the case your self in case its a tranny issue then I'd go for it.
the shifting problem is probably bent shift fork. so you would need to tear the whole motor down and split the cases......
I dont mean to be disrespectful here, but the banshee is more clean, has more power, and has a lot of mods on it. Trading it for your blaster with few mods and less clean seems a little fishy to me. Im not trying to sound like a dick at all just pointing it out if you know what I mean
I feel the same way but I do understand the boys father not wanting to have that much bike for a starter ride. If you don't mind getting ride of your Blaster and the Banshee is ok,I would go for it. If you don't like it,you could try to flip it for a nice mod'ed blaster or maybe a 250R.
thanks everyone for the input on the banshee. i relly appreciate it. i am going to meet up with the guy on friday and check it out. and see what its all about. so i will let everyone know what the verdict is.
i think im about 2-3 hours from cincinatti if i get it i would love to get those from ya. thanks bro.
