The banshee: Started with a stock 2000, it came with mohawks and 20" haulers. I bought it bout 6 years ago. 4 months after i bought it, it lost compression. Got sand in the motor. So i had it rebuilt: bored .20 over, shaved head, wiseco pistons, k&n pod filters, and sst pipes. This is my first quad, too much quad for my experience level Alittle while after this build i flew of a 2 story dune going way too fast landed bout 3/4 the way down. My face went into the bars (i was wearing a helmet), they hit me in the goggles. Broke my nose in three spots, fractured both cheek bones, cracked my sinus track like crazy. Had to have facial reconstructive surgery. It sucked!! After i finally decided to keep the banshee, i put on a 6 over chrome roundhouse swingarm and 22x11x8 9pdl haulers. I had it setup that way for like 4 years. Sorry no pics.

Dynoed: 52hp 39tq. Didn't do all this at once.

After dunefest i decided i wanted it to look different so we painted the frame a metal flake gloss black. Added chassis inc footpegs.

I bought spare frame and had chassis inc modify it. He trimmed all the extra tabs off, welded his subframe on, added custom crossmembers.

Subframe

Front crossmember

After alot of debating i decided (with the help of friends) to go with an old school look. Flat black frame and plastics.

Here's what it looks like after the paint and put back together.

Rear and side views. Notice the taillight is now tucked up by the rear shock, nice.


Got a new seat cover. It goes better with the paint scheme i'm gonna do.

I traded my dad wheels. I'm now going to be running his blue labels that have been made into beadlocks by chassis inc. I'm going to have the wheels pc'd flat black. Here they are.

Thanks, Yeah i'm still not sure if i'm 100% happy with it. I liked it alot with the stock plastics and black frame, but i think when this is done i'll like it more!
