Sport bikes

[broughsy01warrior]

If I were to buy another sport bike what would you guys recommend? I'm thinking banshee, 250r just because of them being 2 stroke haha:slayer:
This will happen next summer.. I have no money now lol

 

['00 WO-YA!]

Kinda depends on what you want. Both if those machines are great in their own right but still nothing wrong with modern thumpers.

 

[Gen1Pat]

Hard choice... Both maybe? I think it depends on what type of riding you plan on doing.

 

[broughsy01warrior]

im not planning on selling my kawi so i won t be able to afford the thumper.. thats why im thinking old school smokers.. just because theyre still pretty bad ass and powerful.

with this bike ill just be riding sand pits and screwin around lol, ill still have my brute for trails and mud, i just want the sport bike for when summer roles around and theres barely any mud up here.

Whichever you find the best deal on

 

[Rockgrenade]

If you really like the warrior then get a cheap one and build it to what you want.. I would if I could.

 

[broughsy01warrior]

ya i liked my warrior... but .. i want a 2 stroke lol

 

[henry03250]

I say Banshee.
Unlimited aftermarket support and tuning.
They can be a great trail bike or an all out 100+ horsepower machine.
One of the best platforms ever built imo.

warrior 2 smoke conversion. ya get a warrior, a 2 stroke, and the enjoyment of building it yourself!

How much deniro we talkin

 

[Mathius]

I say find a clean Zuki LT250r..
I had 2 of them, and their great little quads for both track, and trail. Where the banshee can get a bit sketchy on tight trails.
But!!
The banshee does have a better aftermarket following.

 

[88WarriorBoy]

Yeah X2

 

[sparkymichigan]

I say TRX250R all the way
No question.

 

[Mathius]

I say TRX250R all the way
No question.

If you can find one?
They go for big bucks up here...

 

[sparkymichigan]

Here too!
Worth every damn penny!

 

[Mathius]

Yes they are.. And you can mod them right to the max!!
Their more of a flat track, dune machine IMO though.

 

[duneracerweston]

This should be about a 2500 to 3k budget if he is selling that brute for it.

 

[Mathius]

Well shoot man.
If he has that much he could get a YFZ 450..
Or if he still wanted a 2 stroke, build one.

warrior 2 smoke conversion. ya get a warrior, a 2 stroke, and the enjoyment of building it yourself!

But I wouldn't do it to a warrior. If I had it to do over again, I woulda found a more modern frame to build a hybrid out of.
A YZ250, in a YFZ frame. Thats a killer trail quad right there, and it would have the modern parts, and aftermarket support. :tup:

YFZ rolling chassis pop up all the time.

he's not selling the brute

For the type of riding you mentioned I say banshee. You said the modern thumpers are out of your price range but you can find an early YFZ in the $3000 range, you're gonna pay nearly that much for a decent banshee. Either way you can't lose. I think the R would be cool but I'm too much a Yamaha guy.
