most bikes are junk now, considering that at least 90% of them co me from china. my bike is a piece, but some bikes start off good, and gradually wear down, sometimes fast, sometimes slow.

this banshee started off bad.the motor locked up in the first 15 minutes of use.rebuilt it from bottom to top and the bike locked up again.i used blenzall racing oil 25 to 1 and nothing but bad luck and lots of waisted money.by now i am pissed and ready to trash the bike.i sent the motor to california and they rebuilt it.crank,ported piston,20mm mikuni carb,ported cylinder,trick billet racing head,reeds and billet reed block,dual boost tubes they also took my pipe cut it and lengthend it.the bike is a monster.it is mean and dangerous to the max.lots of money.should bought an italian bike used for the money.regardless the banshee is one mean s.o.b. :D

i am not sure yet how fast this bike is as the winter here now is keeping me from going out and hurting myself.i have another banshee that i just recieved and it is stock and you cant even compare the two bikes.the bike with the mods just eats the stock bike up alive.if there is infact a pocket 2cycle 50cc that runs 90+mph thats crazy but cool.they must be running that bike extremely wet.a nice NOS wet system runs 600.00+ not installed out of california.thats more money than i want to spend + my old lady is pissed about my toys already.theres acouple good mods on ebay that are fair in price and quality but for the most part i get better deals on dealers websites just by asking them for a price break for the real goodies. :D
