For that kind of money, a Banshee would be the best for you. You will pay around 4-5 grand for a decent used one and put the rest into setting it up with nerfs, switch, anti-sway bar, tyres and pipes. Hunt around a bit and you could get one with pipes and some of the needed gear already fitted.

you should also consider a Gas Gas 300 if your looking at 2 strokes. Already wide and with good shocks. plenty powerfull.

this one is still for sale in melb. you may get it a bit under asking price.
I know the bloke who owns it and seen how he looks after it. it's in mint cond.

Banshee... I would nearly sell mine, but I love it to much. The 4 strokes are to expensive and over rated Laughing

If you could get a bit more $$$$$ pigz would probably sell you his Honda 450 which is a very fast dirt tracker. Or i could sell you my Phillips race quad which has adjustable suspension so you can lower it for flat track. (see 250r and or yfz for sale) 0428421123.

I know where you can pick up what could possibly be one of the fastest Banshees in Australia but it will cost more than 6500. Although you can buy it and head straight to the race track, its definitly a fast quad and if your only going to use it for DT its worth every penny.

PM me if you are interested.

Banshees make exellent dirttrack machines.

Especially in the price range your talking. Blow the doors off any fourfifty this side of $10000
