  |
|
Hey guys looking for a banshee but i keep reading they dont handle too well in the scrub, is there any set up that can maximise the handling? i had a raptor 700 a few years back and had to sell it, looking to get back into riding but looking for a cost effective bike!! i would like to do mostly open trail riding with a few tight tracks here and there!
thx |

i put a set of +3 a arms, fox float X shocks on the front and got a wider axle with the rear shock rebuilt/upgraded by quadsquad in victoria.
Amazing difference!!!!
just dont hit a tree like i did on Australia Day

| Axle and arms would run to around $1000, I am guessing the Shocks would run around the same kind of money, if not more... makes a cheap Banshee rather expensive... |
