    Bringing this bad girl home over the weekend! 2003 Yamaha Banshee, stock motor, but it has CPI pipes, new tires, wheels and a few other goodies.

    Plan to keep my 400, but want something faster for the open trails and areas I ride where I find the 400 lacking in power. Not only that, I've wanted a Banshee since I was 6 years old! Long live the 2 strokes!! :D

    I had a 1999 Banshee. That thing was a machine and nothing like the 2 stroke engine! Enjoy it!!!

    I just bought a yamaha rd350 its a 350 2 stroke, the banshee engine is based on the rd motors. Looks kinda goofy like most bikes from the 70s though but should be fast just like a banshee.I really like banshee and two strokes yours looks nice too.

    Its street bike not a dirt bike
