One thing to look for when Banshees won't cold start is that the float bowl is on the correct carburetor. The bowl with the jet in the bottom must go on the carb with the choke, otherwise the choke will not function. People tend to switch them up during a routine carb clean and never notice it.

I used to do the same thing when I was younger, and had a lot of fun doing it. Road trips for quads, bikes etc, fix em up and sell the ones I didn't get attached to. Great hobby, great videos. I watch them with my young sons, little do they know they have two lt50s that need a little work coming their way Christmas morning!

That dude sounded lit! The prices on the big bore quads is just insane. Reminds me of shopping for a diesel truck this year. I didn't buy one because I knew they were all overpriced. Now they're coming down again. Hopefully ATV's follow suit. If you're flipping machines don't forget to account for your time spent searching classifieds, driving to and from a purchase, licensing, fuel/lube, insurance. We need to get good deals on purchases or it isn't worth doing.

You riding in the deep snow just spinning and having a blast really brought back my memories of doing it too. I felt the wind and all the smells and feelings!! Great video!!

You really should be doing leak down test on the older 2 strokes. Could have 150psi in both cylinders for a hot minute if you’ve got an air leak. That was a score of the year. Respect the machine

I know you say it doesn't look so good but $2500 for any banshee is crazy good. Even if it's in pieces

"I don't know, I never use the front brakes. I was assuming they did"(worked). 🙄 Oh yeah, the rear brake is defunct as well!🤷🏽‍♂ "I down shift it(changing the subject)I... I actually traded two quads for this... " Who needs brakes, right? "Like I said,(did he?)I smashed my truck so I'm getting that out of impound today" Is this guy for real?

Back in the day, we used to put screws in the knobs of the tires for traction. We used to cut the screws shorter than the knobs (obviously) . The hex screws made the best traction. Great videos, bro.

Hey joe I watch your videos regularly you’ve been doing a long time love seeing new content keep up the good work lol tell Charlie he needs to come be in a few more vids too it be nice to see the ole 125r and your cr250 out ripped when it’s warm again

You should get a set of Maxxis 4 snow tires for winter snow riding. Makes a world of difference for two wheel drive sport quads!

Best KZreadr out there! Keep up the good work!

Pull front plastics, should be a vin tag in there. I think you should find it and run it through NCIC. If we suspect that we do every time. Had 2 last year that we recovered for a guy. Were stolen out of his driveway trailer and all. We got both quads and he left the trailer, so clean sweep. He came out to my shop to verify it was them and started crying. Felt good to help, and we repaired them both.

Joe is having to much fun!! Make a path with your new 4 by 4 quad. That thing is sick too.

That chain has a few hours on it. Spotted a couple locked links. I'd check to see if the sprockets were replaced and the old chain kept. When the friction areas between the pins and bushing wear and make the chain appear to have stretched, which it doesn't do, using it on new sprockets will quickly wear them out. Still watching and think someone's gonna have a blast with it when you're finished with it.

Man what a Score. My next buys are 250R threeWheeler and a Banshee. She just need some TLC.

If you look back at 52:40 of the video, you can make out a few digits of what might be a part of a vin number. Amazing what a camera lens can pick up that we don't see when looking

Check underneath the plastic where the handle bars go into it at for the front end steering like on dirt bikes.& Bicycles to. Honda stamps their vin numbers in that area a lot to. As long as it's on the frame.& It's clear vin you can titled it as well.

I think I speak for everyone when I say you deserve a nice 509 monosuit for your winter shenanigans 🙏🏼 and probably a nice set of riding boots! How are your feet and head not freezing without gear?!?

I had one way back in the early 2000 with the same color scheme!!! Absolutely a blast!! I would end up going down to little Sahara in Waynoka Oklahoma!! I would go down there for the rattlesnake roundup!!! Tons of fun for sure!!!

VIN straight got removed. Yamaha VINs are on that lower left frame rail. Safe to say then, it was stolen at one point. Who else grinds a vin off for any other purpose

So excited to watch your videos that guy was clueless and didn’t know anything You should build the banshee motor with a 421cc 4mil stroker be a awesome video 😎

That 2 to 1 expansion chamber sounds so good

On the header pipe if your wanting to clean it up try using SOS steel wool pad sponges and on the plastics they make a spray Called SC1 gloss overcoat that would make it look new again

I was just going to say there should be a grease zert on the rear swing arm!! I no mine did because I had to replace a couple times after falling out!!

Get a vacuum pump or a syringe for reverse bleeding! It would be way more satisfying watching you get all the air out and do it properly! Sorry but true 😂👊🏻 Keep them coming! 👍🏼👊🏻

First one I’ve heard revs out properly, nice .

Great job and lucky on top of that. fantastic price for that machine but for winter get another set of rear wheels and mount some swamp fox tires on them. Should be 115 mm bolt pattern, same as warrior but a few oddballs might have a 156 bolt pattern if it's very early.
