horror stories regarding the 2008 gearbox 4stroker not all models
as i said i have not had one issue with my 2 and also noticed few others with 07 models havent had trouble
and if he is going to race it i think getting rid of the bone jarring out of date race designed banshee would be a smart move as i know i used to race a banshee and even rec riding i think the ltr in stock form out performs a stock banshee in ride plushness haha
06 only had issue of rear shock mount breaking which they recalled and fixed on them
07 no real known issues
08 3rd gear issue
09 still to see what if any probs
haitim01 dont let anyone scare ya at vic titles all the ltrs that were there all were going end of weekend i know of 2 yams that werent and a honda that wasnt and another yam had a clutch let go
few ltrs on podium too

come to think of it, im pretty sure its only a 2006 cause i founf the original post where he was selling it a while back, and that was in 2006.
Another guy has had it in between but didnt ride it, it sat in his shed for 98% of the time he had it.
anyone know where i can get some new plastics from at a good price or new sticker kits?
Cheers |

the 06's also had an issue with the shift mechanism, which could break out and let the gearbox select more than one gear (= kaboom). we never had one go but I know of quite a few that did.
the 07's issues (with the ones that have had them) are likley related to the case hardening process that Suzuki use not being reliable, as in that there are good ones and bad ones around.
haitim01, that is definatly one of the 06's as the 07's only just got sold in the last 2 months.

I mean that Smittys 07's only just got sold so the one you've got is definitely an 06.
